Palestinians in East Jerusalem express deep anger over the recent surge in Israeli demolitions of their homes, particularly in the al-Bustan area of Silwan, as families like the Awads are left devastated and feeling that their future has been obliterated amid plans to convert the area into a park linked to Jewish settlements, amidst ongoing international neglect and legal challenges to their housing. #EastJerusalem #PalestinianRights #ForcedEvictions

'They destroyed the future': Palestinian anger at rise in Israeli demolitions in East Jerusalem

The demolition pace of illegal buildings in the Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan is accelerating. Settlement organizations are buying houses in the Arab neighborhood and increasing the Jewish presence. The authorities have long granted only 7% of Arab building requests. Houses built in a legal vacuum without permits are now being targeted by city crews. (translated)

À Silwan, un quartier de Jérusalem-Est, des habitants palestiniens de 150 maisons menacées de démolition sont contraints de choisir entre détruire leurs propres maisons ou payer pour que l'armée israélienne le fasse, tandis que des familles de colons israéliens s'installent dans la région, renforçant la politique d'effacement des Palestiniens soutenue par le gouvernement israélien. #JérusalemEst #Palestiniens #Colonisation
