RAMALLAH, August 21, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation authorities have delivered eviction notices to 17 Palestinian families living in the Al-Mashahid neighborhood of Um Tuba village, located south of occupied Jerusalem.
According to the orders, the homes in question are allegedly built on land claimed by the so-called Jewish National Fund (JNF).
The Palestinian Authority’s Jerusalem Governorate reported that the Israeli municipality has posted signs in the neighborhood bearing the signature of the Israel Land Authority, warning residents not to enter the lands, claiming they are under confiscation and that existing homes are subject to seizure.
The move is part of ongoing efforts to displace Palestinian residents from their homes and expand control over land in occupied East Jerusalem, despite international condemnation of such practices.
