Tubas (Northeastern West Bank)
According to Motaz Bisharat, the official in charge of the Jordan Valley file in Tubas, Israeli forces used heavy machinery to destroy agricultural water networks used by local farmers to irrigate their land in the village of Atuf, southeast of Tubas.
Occupied Jerusalem
In occupied Jerusalem, Israeli authorities stormed the Batn al-Hawa neighborhood in Silwan town, south of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and delivered seven eviction orders for residential apartments belonging to the Rajabi family.
The Jerusalem Governorate reported that the so-called “Execution Department” invaded the Batn al-Hawa neighborhood and handed the Rajabi family orders to evacuate seven apartments by May 17, 2026.
According to the governorate, the eviction order also stipulates that if the residents have not evacuated the homes by May 25, 2026 the army will forcibly evict them.
Israeli courts ruled in the favor of the “Ateret Cohanim” colonial association to take over the homes, forcibly displacing dozens of citizens, despite the family submitting a petition to freeze the eviction orders.
