Palestinian Muslim worshippers perform the Friday prayer next to the rubble of the Palestinian homes that were destroyed by Israeli authorities three days before, on July 29, 2016 in the village of Qalandia, which is located next to Israel's controversial separation barrier, between the West Bank town of Ramallah and East Jerusalem. On July 26, 2016, Israeli authorities demolished a dozen Palestinian homes in Qalandia, according to Palestinian sources. Witnesses added that shortly after midnight, a convoy of dozens of military vehicles and Israeli bulldozers stormed the area, before demolishing 11 houses. Israeli authorities did not respond to requests for information on the demolitions, but such cases are usually said to be because the owners did not have building permits. Photo by Shadi Hatem
