The Palestinian Freedom Movement said on Tuesday that the demolition operations carried out by the Israeli occupation forces in the Al-Bustan neighborhood of Silwan town in the occupied city of Jerusalem are a serious aggression and a crime of ethnic cleansing.

The movement confirmed in a statement reached Safa that this aggression is igniting fire, as Jerusalem and its neighborhoods are a red line that cannot be crossed, and the occupation bears the repercussions of that."

The movement called on the people of Jerusalem and the occupied interior to rise up to confront the occupation forces, and cut off the road to the implementation of its settlement and Judaization plans.

It shoud be noted that 13 Jerusalemites were wounded by rubber bullets, tear gas and sound bombs after the Israeli occupation forces suppressed the residents of the Al-Bustan neighborhood in the town of Silwan in occupied Jerusalem, coinciding with the demolition of a commercial store in the neighborhood.

The deadline set by the occupation municipality to demolish 13 homes out of 17 in the Al-Bustan neighborhood expired on Sunday, these houses were subjected to self-demolition, or bear the costs of that in the event that the municipality is forced to send its crews and bulldozers to implement those orders.
