‘An Israeli organization working for the creation of a Jewish majority in East Jerusalem al-Quds is reportedly moving ahead with plans to drive nine Palestinian families out of their homes in an area of the occupied territory.
Ateret Cohanim has recently asked the Jerusalem al-Quds Magistrate’s Court to issue eviction orders for the Palestinians families, who are living in the Batan al-Hawa area of Silwan neighborhood, Ha’aretz daily newspaper reported on Wednesday.
