Jerusalem: Army demolishes Al-Tour home
Israeli occupation forces stormed the town of Al-Tur, east of Jerusalem, early this morning and demolished a five-story residential building containing ten apartments inhabited by about 70 residents, most of them women and children. The Israeli authorities had decided to demolish the building in 2022, after a suspension of the order through the occupation court. The residents received a final notice yesterday before the demolition was carried out. This comes as part of ongoing Israeli restrictions on Palestinian construction in Jerusalem, with the number of demolition and expropriation operations reaching 427 cases by the end of September 2026, amid a refusal to issue building permits.
