On Wednesday, 6 November 2019, at around 10:00 A.M., Civil Administration personnel arrived with soldiers, Border Police officers and a crane truck to Khirbet Khallet a-Dabe’ in the Msafar Yatta area in the South Hebron Hills. The forces dismantled and confiscated three tents used as residences by three families numbering a total of 21 members, including 11 children. The three tents were donated by the ICRC after the Civil Administration demolished the homes of two of the families on 11 September 2019, leaving nine people, including five children, homeless. At around 12:30 they continued northeast, to the Maghayir al-'Abid community in Masafer Yatta and demolished a tent that served as a livestock pen.
