Escalating Judaization and Property Seizure in East Jerusalem
A human rights report reveals that 19 official Israeli entities are involved in expropriating Palestinian properties in East Jerusalem to alter the city's demographic landscape.
A human rights report by the organization "Ir Amim" has revealed the involvement of 19 government and official entities, spanning eight Israeli ministries and agencies, in the expropriation of Palestinian properties and the accelerated displacement of indigenous residents from occupied East Jerusalem.
The report, documented by Hassan Masoud, highlights an increasing trend in home demolitions and land seizures, with approximately 85% of registered land now being appropriated for settlement projects.
These actions are part of a persistent effort to redraw the city's demographic map and eliminate the Palestinian presence in six major neighborhoods and communities currently facing the threat of total displacement.
These findings reflect a systematic strategy employed by Israeli authorities to establish a new reality in East Jerusalem by diminishing the Palestinian presence and expanding settlement activities.
