The year 2013 changed little for Palestinians in terms of forced demolitions and evictions carried out by the Israeli army. The Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions documented that in 2012, 600 structures in addition to 180 houses were demolished, displacing a total number of 880 Palestinians — a 19% decrease from 2011.
In 2011, which saw a record increase in demolitions, 1,094 Palestinians were displaced, with the majority of the demolitions (89%) taking place in areas designated as Area C.
