Security forces destroyed seven illegally built Arab houses and 13 additional structures Wednesday on the southern slope of Mount Hevron in Judea.
The structures had been built in the villages of Manzal, Umm al-Khir and Gawawis.
"Twenty illegal structures were destroyed after demolition orders were issued, and offers were made to the owners to pursue the available options before the planning organizations," according to a statement from the IDF's Civil Administration. "The supervisory unit of the civil administration will continue to operate against illegal building activity in the area, and to implement the steps mandated by law against this illegal activity."
