OCCUPIED JERUSALEM (PIC)– Members of a right-wing Jewish group who claimed five years ago their ownership of two houses in Beit Hanina neighborhood to the east of occupied Jerusalem now declared their intention to establish the first Jewish settlement outpost there the Hebrew newspaper Jerusalem said on Friday.
The newspaper stated that two years after the unrest in Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood the same scene could be repeated here in Beit Hanina as a result of this outpost.
It noted that it would not be possible to prevent members of this group of staying in these two houses especially after the homes that had been seized by Jewish groups in Sheikh Jarrah was legally settled by the Israeli higher court which stated then that there was no legal obstacle preventing their residence in houses purchased legally.
Right-wing activist Aryeh King said that he and member of the Jewish group found out lately that a Palestinian family is still residing in what he described as an unauthorized building located in the middle of the two houses they had bought in Beit Hanina.
King added that he and his fellow right-wing comrades went last Tuesday to Beit Hanina to demand the Palestinian family to evacuate their home.
According to him they also handed the family a letter telling it about their intention to move soon to the houses so it has to leave its home or demolish it.
He also noted that a group of Jewish young singles would live in these houses.
The housing administration in Beit Hanina was very surprised to hear about this Zionist malicious plan which was prepared by members of this right-wing group and emphasized it would fight their scheme with all legal means.
Beit Hanina housing administration also warned that this Zionist scheme would turn the area into a flashpoint.
