Propaganda: Israel demolishes Palestinian houses
The Bedouins had been warned in 2019 that they had to leave the government owned area after they lost a court proceeding. People cant just set up a village wherever they want in Europe, the Roma for example have been evicted many times.
According to an NPR article a charity had given them tents and I assume will tend to them.
Israeli settlements also get evicted as well if built illegally in the West Bank. Check the links for two cases:

This incident is in Area C as per the Oslo Accords of 1995, a highly sensitive area in terms of building by either side.

———————————————————
In recent decades, municipalities and governments in all parts of the world have struggled with illegal building. However, compared with the incessant denunciation of rather infrequent demolitions by the Jerusalem Municipality, there has been nearly a complete lack of publicity when other governments demolish illegal structures.

The shepherds of Yatta would sleep in caves in nearby grazing areas, rather than trekking back to the village each night. After the IDF closed off the area, the shepherds were permitted to continue grazing their flocks there; the IDF gave them a few days’ warning before live-fire exercises to insure that no one got hurt. The Palestinian Authority seized the opportunity – and began funding construction of permanent structures. Foreign interests jumped right in after them, funding infrastructure projects to support the “indigenous farmers” – laying water and electricity lines that enabled more and more people to set up homesteads on the “free” land.

Debunking the lies about Training Ground 918
1. Training Ground 918 was declared a firing zone by the IDF in the early 1980s.
2. It’s a desert area, and like all other training grounds, was empty – besides sometimes functioning as a grazing area.
3. Training Ground 918 has served various IDF units over the years – including infantry, artillery, and the Air Force.
4. In 2000, local Arabs began to take over the area through mass illegal construction.
5. Due to the construction, the IDF was forced to reduce its activities in the Training Ground and made changes to training schedules.
6. Radical left-wing organizations filed a petition to the High Court of Justice, claiming that hundreds of Arab families had lived in the Training Ground for many years.
7. The IDF checked and found that only a handful of families lived in the area in 2000 – and they were all there on a seasonal basis. It wasn’t their permanent residence!
8. Out of 49 families mentioned in the petition, at least 38 were identified as permanent residents of the nearby village of Yatta or other villages.
9. Despite the State’s position, which viewed the land as rightfully belonging to the State, the High Court offered a compromise: the illegal structures on the periphery of the Training Ground would remain, and the rest of the land would be permitted for grazing and other agricultural purposes when the IDF isn’t using the grounds.
10. Although the Palestinian Authority was involved from the starting point, from 2009 onwards, together with international organizations, it started actively funding the illegal construction as part of their efforts to take over Area C.
11. In the meantime, the State of Israel didn’t do much; local Arabs continued their encroachment and even paved an illegal smuggling route.
12. The PA ignored the High Court’s suggestion for compromise. And as the PA-led encroachment increased, the number of IDF drills decreased drastically.
