Israeli settlers attack Palestinian homes in Jerusalem
Israeli settlers on Sunday attacked Palestinians and their homes in Al-Sumoud camp in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood, in the centre of occupied East Jerusalem.
The settlers threw stones at the houses, in addition to smashing the cars of the citizens parked in front of their houses.
Video clips also showed the occupation forces using wastewater to suppress young men.
As per media reports, the camp residents responded to the settlers’ attacks. It was not known whether there were casualties among the Palestinians.
This coincides with the march of flags, which was organized on Sunday evening in Jerusalem to celebrate the occupation of the eastern part of the city.
The march, with the participation of tens of thousands of Israelis, passed through Bab al-Amud and the Old City and is scheduled to end at the Al-Buraq Wall adjacent to Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Dozens of Palestinians were injured during clashes with the Israeli army in separate locations in Jerusalem and the West Bank, in protest against the march.
