JERUSALEM, Monday, April 29, 2019 (WAFA) – Bulldozers of the Israeli municipality of West Jerusalem today demolished a car repair shop in al-Thouri neighborhood of occupied East Jerusalem and ordered a Palestinian to complete tearing down his house in Silwan neighborhood, according to Wadi Hilweh Information Center.
The car repair shop and the house were demolished under the pretext they were built without a permit.
Mohammad Salaymeh started last week to destroy his house under pressure from the municipality, which would have demolished it anyhow and forced him to pay large amount in demolition fees.
However, Israeli crews returned to his house this morning and ordered him to continue demolishing it to the ground.
