Europe: EU is funding illegal projects in the West Bank

Via European Jewish Press:
The European Union is funding illegal projects by NGOs  in the West Bank. Such structures have been built without the necessary official permits. 
Israel demolished two Arab schools which were illegally constructed with money provided by the European Union. 
On Monday, a kindergarten structure in a Bedouin Arab community in the West Bank  was confiscated. Additionally, a small primary school was demolished. 
Solar panels used to power a third school were also removed. 
Children are due to return to school next Wednesday after the summer holidays. 
In a statement, the EU expressed "strong concern about the recent confiscations of Palestinian school structures undertaken by Israel in Bedouin communities in the occupied West Bank."
