Illegal Israeli settlers forcibly displace Palestinian family from occupied West Bank home

Illegal Israeli settlers have forcibly displaced a Palestinian family from their home in the town of Jalud, south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank, before taking over the property, according to local sources.

The house, owned by Mahmoud al-Tubasi, was seized after nearly three months of escalating harassment by Israeli occupiers, they said.

According to the sources, theillegal settlers had previously set the home on fire and established an illegal outpost nearby.

Blockade and forced evacuation

Despite a blockade and repeated disruptions to food and water supplies, the Tubasi family remained in the house for weeks, refusing to leave.

The sources said the illegal settlers cut off electricity to the home several days ago and prevented food, water and medical supplies from reaching the family.
