ISRAEL-PALESTINIAN-BEDOUIN-HOUSING-NEGEV

A Bedouin woman of the Al-Qiyaan tribe bakes Pita bread in Umm Al-Hiran village, which is not recognized by the Israeli government, near the southern city of Beersheva in the Negev desert on November 24, 2013. Some 500 members of the Al-Qiyaan tribe have inhabited Umm Al-Hiran since 1956 and will have to relocate to nearby Hura, if Israels Supreme Court is to rule in favour of the government decision to evict the Bedouin from the village and clear it for a new Jewish Orthodox community. A bill calling for the relocation of 30,000-40,000 Bedouin, the demolition of about 40 villages and confiscation of more than 700,000 dunums (70,000 hectares) of land was approved by the government in January and by parliament in a first reading in June. But it has to pass two more readings in parliament before becoming law. AFP PHOTO/MENAHEM KAHANA (Photo credit should read MENAHEM KAHANA/AFP via Getty Images)
