12 out of 18 houses to be demolished in Akaba village
www.gush-shalom.org
We got an alarming phonecall from Akaba village. Two and a half years ago its only health clinic was in danger of
demolition - a demolition order had been issued. Then, Israeli and international protests helped divert the threat and
the clinic is still there.
But the village is again threatened. This time, the peasant families received for 12 out of the 18 houses AND the Mosqe
AND the Kindergarten demolition orders.
No problems of terrorism in Akaba; the hamlet doesn't pose any security threat whatsoever. Its only sin: that it is
located in "C-area", that is: the area which Sharon wants to annex, and preferably empty.
Gush Shalom is again mobilizing its worldwide network - hoping to avert at least this disaster.
