Israeli forces this week confiscated the homes of 84 Palestinians in Ramallah Governorate and a structure accommodating a family of eight in the northern Jordan Valley, UN humanitarians said on Friday.

The Israeli military took at least 49 structures in the Ras al-Tin, Ramallah Governorate, displacement on Wednesday, said the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).

"The United Nations has repeatedly called on Israel to halt its demolition and confiscation of Palestinian property and bring its conduct in line with its obligations as an occupying power under international humanitarian law," OCHA said.
