Israeli Settlers Attack Al-Quds’ Sheikh Jarrah, Injure Dozens of Palestinians

Alwaght- Israeli regime has destroyed early Wednesday the home of a Palestinian family in Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood, in east al-Quds.

Before dawn, the occupation regime forces went to the home of the Salhiya family, threatened with eviction since 2017 and the centre of an anti-eviction campaign in the Palestinian territories and further afield, according to a video posted online by the police.

Shortly afterwards, AFP reported the demolition of the house.

"Israel police completed the execution of an eviction order of illegal buildings built on grounds designated for a school for children with special needs from east Jerusalem," a police statement said.

A police spokesman told AFP 18 family members and supporters were arrested for resisting against demolition operation.

When police arrived to carry out the eviction order on Monday, Salhiya family members went up to the building's roof with gas canisters, threatening to set the contents and themselves alight if they were forced out of their home.

A delegation of European diplomats also visited the site. Sven Kuehn von Burgsdorff, head of the European Union's mission to the West Bank and Gaza Strip, told AFP on Monday that "in occupied territory, evictions are a violation of international humanitarian law".

Hundreds of Palestinians face eviction from homes in Sheikh Jarrah and other east al-Quds neighborhoods. Circumstances surrounding the eviction threats vary.

Palestinians say their homes were legally purchased from Jordanian authorities who controlled east al-Quds between 1948 and 1967.

Israel occupied east al-Quds in the Six-Day War of 1967 and later annexed it in a move not recognized by the international community.

More than 200,000 Jewish settlers have since moved into the city's eastern sector, fuelling tensions with Palestinians.
