Bedouin women sit next to the ruins of their demolished houses in the unrecognized Bedouin village of Umm Al-Hiran, in the Negev desert, Israel, January 18, 2017. A resident and an Israeli policeman were killed during the operation. Israeli authorities said the policeman was killed in a car-ramming attack, while residences and activists claimed the driver was first shot dead by the police, with no apparent reason, before losing control of his car and driving towards the policemen. The Israeli state plans to completely demolish the village in order to build a Jewish-only town on that land.
