JENIN, (PIC)-- The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Thursday evening stormed Ya’bad town, west of Jenin city, and handed Palestinian citizens a military order to demolish their coal plants, the main source of charcoal in occupied Palestine.

Local sources affirmed that 17 coal plants on which dozens of families depend for their living received demolition warnings from the IOF.

The IOF launched six months ago a plan to demolish all coal plants in the town and nearby villages and banned their owners from importing timber from the 1948 occupied lands.

In a separate incident, the IOF on the same day afternoon handed the family of a Palestinian young man called Taha Sharqawi from Zababdeh town a summons from the intelligence headquarters in Salem military post, west of Jenin city.

Eyewitnesses said that Israeli troops encircled the house of Sharqawi and handed his family a summons for interrogation after they did not find him at home.
