Den stille deportation fortsætter

Eviction in Jerusalem.Since last night, Israeli and International Activists have been staying with two families in the Sheikh Jerrah Neighborhood in Jerusalem facing eviction from their homes after the Sephardic Committee claimed ownership of these houses. All houses in the neighborhoods are in danger of eviction due to earlier plans of establishing the Jewish neighborhood called “New Musrarah”The eviction order is already in force, (as of Thursday 8:00AM)! and due to the response of many activists who came this morning, the police has YET to evacuate the families. We would like to continue to stand next to the families to stop the evacuation, to express our solidarity and to oppose such crimes.Any person who can join us and sleep at one of the homes this evening (Thursday) or join us tomorrow morning please contact us – our presence makes a difference:Liat Taub, Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions – 02-6231917, 02-6245560Arik Ascherman, Rabbis for Human Rights – 050-607034Ronni Shendar, The Alternative Information Center – 02-641159, 054-700640or Salomka: 053-806880
