Salah Oudeh (50 years) told LRC reporter:

“Most of Khirbet Jal’ud  is in C area according to Oslo accords, and we have no other plots for construction of a house , that is why I was shocked when receiving a halt of work notice. The construction of my house cost about 170,000 NIS , we reached out to a human rights institution , hoping to rescue our houses”.
