AhlulBayt News Agency: The Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) approved the demolition of a Palestinian building in Silwan, south of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, under the pretext of construction without permit.
Press sources in Occupied al-Quds reported that the Israeli municipality issued a notice ordering the demolition of the building containing 12 apartments in the Wadi Qaddum neighborhood of Silwan.
The demolition process is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, the sources added.
Rejecting the move, dozens of Palestinian families staged a protest vigil outside the municipality headquarters.
Israeli occupation authorities demolished 300 buildings in the occupied West Bank and East al-Quds since the beginning of the year, according to data from the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).
The report issued by OCHA also warned that an imminent Israeli demolition of a Palestinian residential building, consisting of 12 housing units, based in the Wadi Qaddum neighborhood of Silwan, will leave 74 Palestinians homeless, including 42 children.
