Jordan Valley (QNN)- Israeli occupation forces destroyed on Sunday a water tank, which has been used by farmers for irrigation of farmlands in the village of Bardala in the occupied Jordan Valley, reported WAFA.

WAFA quoted Mutaz Besharat, who monitors Israeli settlement activities in the Jordan Valley, saying that Israeli army destroyed a 1000-cube water tank which was used by Palestinian villagers in the area for the irrigation of farmlands.

The Israeli army claimed that the tank was built without an Israeli permission, a pretext that Israel has used for years to prevent Palestinian development in the occupied Palestinian territories, including the Jordan Valley.
