The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) delivered on Monday morning demolition notices against dozens of Palestinian homes in the east Jerusalem district of Issawiya.
Mohamed Abul-Hems member of the Issawiya Follow-Up Committee said that a crew from the Israeli municipality escorted by police officers stormed Issawiya and embarked on photographing its streets and a number of facilities and homes.
Abul-Hems added that the municipal crew put up administrative demolition notices on walls and doors of dozens of homes.
The Jerusalemites have no choice but to build without licenses because there are no structural maps that respond to the natural increase in their numbers.
The IOA also imposes building restrictions on the Palestinian natives in Jerusalem and makes it hard for them to obtain construction licenses.
Israel’s systematic demolition of Palestinian homes in Occupied Jerusalem is believed to be aimed at psychologically destroying the Jerusalemite families in an attempt to force them to move from the holy city.
