Israeli Forces Convert Palestinian House into Military Outpost Near Salfit

Salfit: Israeli occupation forces seized a Palestinian house on Monday night near the entrance of Qarawat Bani Hassan, west of Salfit, and converted it into a military outpost. Local sources reported that Israeli troops informed the homeowner, Khair Sartawe, of the seizure order and gave him until 2:00 PM on Tuesday to comply, before occupying the house and preventing access to it.

According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, the move comes as part of the ongoing military measures imposed by Israeli forces on towns and villages in the Salfit governorate. The transformation of the residential property into a military facility is seen as an extension of the military control exerted in the region, raising tensions and concerns among local residents.
