Zionist enemy declares Wadi Qana closed military zone

OCCUPIED PALESTINE, Feb. 24 (YPA) – The Zionist enemy announced on Saturday, the Wadi Qana area west of the town of Derastia, northwest of Salfit, a closed military zone, where it closed all its entrances after expelling those in it.

The Palestinian Ma’an News Agency quoted the mayor of Derastia Firas Theyab as saying, “the enemy forces stormed the wad area and expelled the farmers and citizens present in the place, and declared Wadi Qana a closed military zone and closed its entrances, preventing entry or exit from it”.

Theyab added that the enemy is trying to control Wadi Qana after declaring it a “Natural Reserve”, as the Wadi Qana area is a tourist destination for Palestinian citizens with the presence of water springs and citrus fruit trees throughout the year, especially this period.
