Israel demolished 14 Palestinian homes in East Jerusalem Al-Quds last month as part of Tel Aviv's Judaization campaign targeting the holy city.

According to the Land Research Center, the Jerusalem Al-Quds Municipality demolished 14 Palestinian homes in the city in November.

The municipality also issued 170 orders to demolish Palestinian homes in occupied East Jerusalem Al-Quds. The orders target 60 homes in the Jabal al-Mokabbir district, 34 homes and 10 structures in al-Esawiyya, 25 homes in Beit Hanina, 22 homes in Samir Amis, 3 homes in al-Thoury, 3 homes in the Old City, and one home in al-Tour, the International Middle East Media Center reported.

In addition, Israeli settlers forced three families out of their homes in Sheikh Jarrah in November.

The apartheid wall currently under construction in the environs of the sacred city is meant to annex more Palestinian land and isolate Palestinians from their hometown, the IMEMC report added.

Israel frequently demolishes houses in East Jerusalem Al-Quds on the pretext that they were built without construction permits. However, Palestinians living in the city say that such permits are nearly impossible to obtain.
