Update 12 Feb. 2014: A Civil Administration bulldozer arrived once more at Khirbet 'Ein Karzaliyah in the central Jordan Valley this morning. It began demolishing the tents put up by the residents since the latest demolition of 13 January 2014. A soldier escort to the bulldozer slashed the tent fabric so that the tents could not be re-erected. The bulldozer did not manage to demolish all the tents as some of them were placed on a hillside. The residents were informed by Civil Administration officials that they would soon return with a larger bulldozer to complete demolitions. Later, the military detained a vehicle belonging to one of the residents, near the Masua junction.
The 25 residents of the small community of Khirbet 'Ein Karzaliyah in the northern Jordan Valley have been forced to spend the last few nights sleeping in the open, after their homes and sheep-pens were demolished twice by the Civil Administration this month.
