Palestinian activists and residents of Khan al-Ahmar community east of Occupied Jerusalem stood on guard on Wednesday to Israeli bulldozers attempting to demolish the Bedouin community.

Local sources said the residents and activists stopped Israeli forces who stormed the village and leveled land in an attempt to create an accessible road.

The Palestinian Red Crescent said its paramedics have been present in the area in anticipation of an escalation by the occupation forces.

In May Israel’s High Court ruled for demolishing Khan al-Ahmar community home to 180 Palestinians.
