Israeli bulldozers destroyed the village of Al-Araqeeb for the 116th time this morning. According to local sources in the Negev, some Israeli occupation forces secured the full protection of Israeli bulldozers during the demolition, which destroyed the huts in the village. Al-Araqeeb is a Palestinian village situated in the Negev region and has existed before the formation of the State of Israel; however the authorities do not regonise it. It was first demolished on 27 July 2010. Israel demands the villagers pay the sum of 2 million shekels ($600,000) to cover the cost of the repeated demolitions.
