Israeli settlers at dawn Sunday seized a Palestinian home in Jerusalem’s town of Silwan to the south of the holy al-Aqsa Mosque.
Settlers from the extremist Elad settler organization accompanied by police forces reportedly grabbed hold of a Palestinian building in Silwan at the crack of dawn.
The Wadi Hilweh Information Center refused to release further details as regards the seized building saying data has to be checked out meticulously so as to allow the house owners to successfully appeal to Israeli courts.
The Israeli Elad settlement organization has been notorious for its land and home grab in the occupied Palestinian territories particularly in East Jerusalem and its Old City.
