PM delays demolition of illegal homes in Palestinian village

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the postponement of the demolition of five illegal Palestinian buildings in the village of Susya in South Mount Hebron.

 

The demolition was scheduled to take place on Tuesday, but was postponed following international pressure on Netanyahu.

 

It is the third time that the evacuation of the area has been called off. The decision to delay it this time comes ahead of a visit this week by US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and Middle East advisor Jared Kushner and the president’s special Middle East envoy Jason Greenblatt.
