Israeli military confiscated on Monday a few tents used by Palestinians as homes and sheep pens in a village near the West Bank city of Hebron, claiming that they were built without a permit.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has recently returned to the global fore because of the 11-day fierce fighting between Israel and Gaza's Hamas. The core issues such as the Palestinians' right to statehood and their living in the West Bank still see no prospect of resolution.
