Occupation Update
While Israeli troops have redeployed to the edge of the Gaza Strip and from all or part of seven West Bank cities, the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territory is by no means finished. The JMCC seeks to keep a record of acts of Israeli violence (both military and civilian), and collective punishment. The following figures are for December 29 - January 5 and were compiled from the Palestinian press and JMCC sources. They should not be considered a complete list of the ongoing Israeli violations of human rights of Palestinians.
DEMOLISHED One home in the village of Deir Nizam in the Ramallah area.
MILITARY CLOSURE On the villages of Dura and Fawwar in the Hebron area for the second day.
