Occupied Jerusalem – The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) on Tuesday demolished a Palestinian house in Beit Hanina suburb north of occupied Jerusalem at the pretext of lack of construction permit.
Palestinian sources said that large numbers of Israeli policemen and border guards stormed the area and cordoned off the vicinity of the house before asking all its occupants to leave it immediately.
The sources noted that the Israeli police did not allow the dwellers to get out their personal belongings and prevented citizens from approaching the house before bulldozing it to the ground.
The Israeli controlled municipality of occupied Jerusalem does not grant construction permits to Arab Jerusalemites forcing the Palestinian citizens to build without permit to meet their natural needs for housing.
