Israeli military forces on Thursday demolished two Palestinian houses southeast of Yatta town, in the southern occupied West Bank city of al-Khalil.

Rateb Jabour, from the anti-wall, anti-settlements popular committees in the south of the West Bank, told Palestinian news agency WAFA that Israeli army bulldozers demolished two Palestinian houses in the village of Lesfayier, southeast of Yatta, under the pretext that they were built without a permit.

He added that the two houses are inhabited by more than 10 people, noting that their owners have the legal documents that prove their ownership of the lands on which the houses were built.

The demolished houses are adjacent to the illegal Israeli settlement of Beit Yatir.
