The Ugly Truth of Israeli Occupation of Palestine Published May 10th, 2021 - 05:24 GMT
Supporters of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) protest in Jabaliya in the northern Gaza Strip on May 5, 2021 against an Israeli court s decision to evict several Palestinian families in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood of occupied East Jerusalem. Israeli Jews backed by courts have taken over houses in Sheikh Jarrah in east Jerusalem on the grounds that Jewish families lived there before fleeing in Israel s 1948 war for independence. The claimants seek to evict a total of 58 more Palestinians, according to the watchdog group Peace Now, and Israel s Supreme Court is set to announce a decision for four of those families on May 6.
