The Israeli military authorities on Wednesday issued stop-construction orders against a mosque and four houses in the village of Khashem al-Karam in the Masafer Yatta community, in the southern occupied West Bank city of AlKhalil.

Local activist Fouad al-Imour told Palestinian news agency WAFA that Israeli occupation forces stormed the village and handed residents a halt on construction orders against the village mosque and four other homes covering 100 square meters each.
