‘I have been defeated’: hundreds of Palestinians face eviction from East Jerusalem
AI Summary
Hundreds of Palestinians in the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Batn al-Hawa face eviction from their homes. The evictions are being pursued by right-wing Israeli organizations like Ateret Cohanim, which aims to increase Israeli control in Jerusalem. Ateret Cohanim claims the land was originally a village built for poor Yemeni Jews in the late 19th century, who were evacuated by British authorities in the 1930s. Zohair Rajabi, a long-time resident of Batn al-Hawa, and his family of 52 are among those facing imminent displacement. Rajabi's family has lived in their home, built on land bought by his grandfather in 1965, for generations. He expects to be evicted within the month.
