The Israeli occupation authorities on Sunday threatened the impending demolition of five Palestinian homes east of Occupied Jerusalem.
A representative of the Bedouin Jabal al-Baba community Atallah Muzar’a said Israeli civil administration crews and army troops stormed the area at noontime on Sunday and handed over demolition writs to civilians.
According to Muzar’a at least 30 Palestinians including women and children will go homeless if the notified demolitions materialize on the ground.
The Israeli authorities ordered the families to evacuate their homes in less than a week’s time.
Home demolition is among the tactics used by the Israeli occupation authorities as part of the so-called E1 project aiming to hold sway over 12000 dunums of Palestinian lands in Occupied Jerusalem and the West Bank in favor of the internationally-condemned illegal settlement expansion.
