    EUROPEAN COMMISSION HUMANITARIAN AID OFFICE (ECHO) Emergency Humanitarian Aid Decision Budget Line – 23 02 01 Title: Commission decision concerning an emergency humanitarian aid decision in favor of the population of the occupied Palestinian territories affected by house demolitions. Location of operation: occupied Palestinian territories, Gaza Strip, Rafah. Amount of Decision: Euro 1 million. Decision reference number: ECHO/PSE/BUD/2004/01000 Explanatory Memorandum 1 - Rationale, needs and target population. 1.1. - Rationale: Between 16 and 22 January 2004 the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) carried out extensive demolition and land levelling in the Palestinian refugee camp in Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip. On 16 January, 17 buildings1, home to 170 people, were demolished. In the night and morning of 20 January a further 36 homes were destroyed, leaving 414 people homeless. Early morning on 22 January a third incursion resulted in another four demolished homes. This assault saw a 31-year old Palestinian woman killed and eight other Palestinians injured. The IDF states that these operations were undertaken following the “discovery of a weapon smuggling tunnel (as well as a tunnel filled with explosive)”. IDF forces “demolished a number of abandoned structures concealing tunnel entry shafts along the Israel-Egypt border, in the Rafah area. The abandoned structures were demolished to halt weapon smuggling and terrorist activity against IDF forces and Israeli civilians”. There is no information available concerning eventual action taken by the Government of Israel towards the Egyptian authorities in relation to the alleged tunnels along the border separating the Gaza Strip from Egypt. Satellite pictures taken by the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre and the European Union Satellite Centre, and made available by the United Nations Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), clearly show the magnitude of the house demolitions taking place in Rafah.
