Israeli Bulldozers demolished on Wednesday, a Palestinian home, hair salon, a barn and a Palestinian home funded by EU in different parts of Jerusalem under the pretext of having no .building license
Many army jeeps and bulldozers, in addition to police
officers and workers of the City Council invaded Shu’fat neighborhood, after
isolating it, and demolished a home and a barn, owned by Saleh Abu Khdeir.
Abu Khdeir told the Wadi Hilweh Information Center in Silwan
(Silwanic) that his home was 115 square meters and was built in 2006, but he
and his family were only able to inhabit it in 2012, after completing all the
needed work and furnishing.
He added that the City Council issued the demolition order
in October 2017, but Abu Khdeir managed to obtain a court order halting the
demolition until further deliberations are held, but the soldiers went ahead
and demolished the property.
The house that funded by UN was owned by Hani
Abu-Eweeda and a 13-member family lived inside it.
The Palestinians who owned these buildings did not get a
prior notice by the Israeli authorities.
These measures are part of an Israeli plan to evacuate the area from its Palestinian residents so it can carry out the 12,000-dunam
Israeli settlement project E1 which will separate East Jerusalem from the West
Bank.
EU member states have previously denied the Israeli policy
of targeting Palestinian facilities built
with EU funds in area C, which is fully under Israeli occupation control, considering it opposed to international law.
