| Eviction orders to 30 Palestinian homes around Jerusalem`s Old City | | Middle East Eye - Israeli authorities in occupied East Jerusalem
delivered eviction orders to some 30 Palestinian homes in several
neighbourhoods. All the eviction orders were delivered between
Sunday and Monday, notably calling for the evacuation of 22 houses
in the Old City neighbourhood of Bab al-Silsila - or Chain Gate -
which would leave almost 200 people without a home. The houses,
located on the path towards the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, had cracks
in the walls due to Israeli archaeological excavations under the Old
City, a practice that has affected the solidity of a number of homes
in Jerusalem. Faiza Abu Asab, one of the residents of Bab al-
Silsila, told Middle East Eye that Israeli excavation made the
houses “unliveable”, as some sections of walls had collapsed or bore
large cracks. [ak]

| Dr. Ashrawi: Israel’s Plan to Replace Jerusalem UNRWA Schools a Part of War on Palestinian Rights | | IMEMC News & Agencies -
"The announced plan of the so-called Israeli municipality in
occupied Jerusalem, to replace UNRWA-run schools, is an extension of
the Israeli establishment’s campaign of aggression against
Palestinian rights and roots in the City,” Ashrawi said in a
statement. “It is also an assault on multilateral institutions and
international law.” She continued, according to Days of Palestine:
“This reprehensible plan also embodies the Israeli establishment’s
disdain for the United Nations, rejection of Palestinian rights, and
illegal actions aimed at altering the historic, cultural, and
demographic composition of occupied Jerusalem.” ca
