Israeli military bulldozers razed a five-story residential building in the town of al-Tur in occupied East Jerusalem within hours, Shehab Wire reported. The demolition destroyed ten apartments and displaced approximately 70 residents, including women and children.
The operation left residents homeless as the building was reduced to rubble. The demolition is part of a pattern of Israeli house demolitions in Palestinian areas of occupied Jerusalem.
