🚨 At dawn today, around 100 Palestinian residents of a multi-story residential building in Wadi Qaddum, Silwan woke to bulldozers, heavy machinery, and a large presence of polices forces surrounding their homes. Within hours, Israeli forces and Jerusalem municipal crews razed the building’s 13 apartments, leaving dozens of families including children and elderly members without shelter. Municipal crews were accompanied by what appeared to be violent mobs of Israeli youth—wearing official yellow vests and presented as part of the operation—who assaulted residents and hurled stones at families attempting to remain near their homes. The demolition was carried out despite a meeting scheduled for today between the residents’ legal counsel and the Jerusalem Municipality to continue negotiations concerning the building’s status. This is the largest residential demolition carried out in East Jerusalem in 2025 and yet another example of the wider policy of forced displacement targeting Palestinians in East Jerusalem.

Today, Umm Nasser Rajabi and her family were forcibly evicted from their home of over 50 years in Batan al-Hawa, Silwan, as a result of lawsuits filed by the Israeli settler organization Ateret Cohanim, which works to advance the takeover of Palestinian homes through discriminatory Israeli laws. With this eviction, the number of Palestinian families who have lost their homes to settlers in Batan al-Hawa in less than 15 months rises to 12 families, as part of a systematic campaign aimed at displacing Palestinian residents. Hundreds of more residents from Batan Al-Hawa face the same fate as the Rajabi Family as Ateret Cohanim and the state intensify their efforts against Palestinian families in the area.
