Residents of the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood in Occupied Jerusalem on Thursday night fended off the incursions of settler groups into the neighborhood and its homes.
Jerusalemite sources reported that dozens of settlers stormed the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood and several homes including the home of the Kurd family under Israeli police protection.
Jewish settlers started fires and danced to the sound of loud music in clear provocation to the neighborhood’s residents according to the sources.
Calls continue for the Palestinian youth to intensify their presence in the neighborhood and repel the Jewish settlers’ incursions and confront the evacuation orders.
The so-called Israeli Supreme Court recently issued a decision to displace seven Jerusalemite families in Sheikh Jarrah although the neighborhood residents are the legal owners of the land.
