More demolitions in the ongoing ethnic cleansing of Jerusalem.
OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- The Israeli-controlled municipality of occupied Jerusalem on Sunday sent its so-called construction observation teams to deliver demolition notifications to 30 Palestinian families.
Local sources said that some of those homes were built 20 years ago and their owners paid fines, noting that the notified homes were located in Beit Hanina, Sha'fat, Aisawiya and Jabal Mukabir neighborhoods.
The sources pointed out that the new demolition orders raise the number of Palestinian homes threatened with destruction since start of this year to 1,052 inhabited by around 5,000 people.
They said that 60% of those houses were ordered to be flattened by the occupation municipality's local affairs court while 40% had received judicial rulings to the effect over the past years.
The local sources charged that the Israeli occupation authority was exercising "racist cleansing" against the Palestinian inhabitants of the holy city.
