It should be marked that citizen Mahmoud Al-Adra was preparing a one dunum plot to establish a barrack to be used for cows breeding.  The second demolition order was served on a water well for Al-Adra that was implemented by Palestinian Hydrology Group in 2013. The well had a volume of 300m2 that the owner intended to use in his agricultural project.

As for citizen Mousa Al-Adra, he received a demolition order on his agricultural room built of concrete slaps and metal slaps. The room was used as a storage unit for the agricultural tools the farmer used in his land.  Noteworthy, the affected citizen has a four dunum plot in the area that he usually plants with winter crops.

About Al-Deirat :

Al-Deirat village is located to the east of Yatta town and is about 6km away from it. The village is considered agricultural and is inhabited by 700 people;  a village council runs the affairs of al-Deirat despite there is no headquarter for the council itself.

A number of families reside in the village namely : (al-Hamamdah, Musa'fieh , al-Adra); al-Deirat is split by the bypass road no. 60, which links all Israeli colonies in the north with those in the south.

The village is edged by Arab al-Ka'abna and al-Karmel colony from the east, Yatta town from the west, Khirbet al-Bwaib from the north and Ma'on colony and Um Lisfa village from the south .Residents of the area aspire to obtain a master-plan for the village that includes their houses  in order to protect them from Israeli orders of stop-work and demolition.
