Israeli authorities conducted a large-scale demolition operation in the West Bank, destroying numerous Palestinian businesses and facilities.
This DW News report documents a major demolition operation carried out by Israeli authorities in Al-Eizariya, West Bank, on May 11, 2026. The action resulted in the destruction of dozens of Palestinian-owned facilities, including shops, supermarkets, and doctors' offices. While Israeli authorities justify the demolitions as enforcement against illegal construction, many Palestinian residents and observers characterize the event as part of a controversial settlement expansion plan east of Jerusalem. Affected business owners express deep distress over losing their livelihoods and face the additional burden of potentially paying for the demolition costs, yet many remain determined to stay and rebuild.
