A general strike swept across Arab local authorities in the Negev region on Thursday in protest against home demolitions and displacement plans pursued by Israeli authorities.
Thousands of Negev residents and members of the Palestinian community participated in a demonstration in front of the government offices and Israeli courts in Beersheba. They raised black flags and banners bearing slogans calling for an end to demolitions and displacement in the Negev and the cancellation of the "Shikli" plan, which aims to uproot Negev residents from their lands and Judaize them.
It's worth noting that Israeli authorities have demolished dozens of homes in the Negev region in recent weeks, and hundreds of homes and thousands of families are at risk of demolition under Israeli plans.
