Where were these located precisely? Whose land are they on, and were any people operating them?
The Guardian says they have this information, but they choose to leave it out?
europa.eu at least gives a general description of the location, that the two small prefab buildings were "in Ibziq".
Ibziq is here[0], but how far is not Ibziq? That is the subject of an ongoing military conflict between two serious belligerents; and a set of treaty negotiations which fail primarily because one side is committed to no compromise whatsoever.

- joebubna 7y agoI was thinking the same thing. The article states that the auction items "also appeared to include material confiscated from Palestinians and Israeli settlers who built without authorization." Which seems to imply this wasn't targeted specifically at the Palestinians but rather anyone who built without permits. Which begs the question... who built the classrooms and why wouldn't they have gotten building permits before doing so? I feel like something is missing here.
