NEGEV, (PIC)-- Israeli municipality bulldozers razed the Arab Bedouin village of Araqib in the Negev desert for the seventh time on Monday, local sources reported.

They said that dozens of police and border police forces provided protection for the municipal teams, adding that the security men forced the citizens to evacuate their homes and belongings in a short time.

The security forces encircled the village and gathered the inhabitants in the village's cemetery at the pretext of preventing any attempt to protest the demolitions.

The village's land defense committee condemned the act in a statement, describing what happened as a "crime".
