The report said that during the reporting period, 1,559 Palestinian houses were demolished whether by the Israeli occupation authorities or self-demolished by their owners to avoid paying heavy fines.
It added that the demolition orders were issued against Palestinian-owned structures under the pretext of construction without permit.
In order to try to rationalize demolition of the Palestinian structures, the report said, the Israeli regime has been accusing their owners of lacking construction permit, obtaining which is next to impossible.
