Palestinians denounce Israeli expansion plans in Jerusalem

Ramallah, Jan 29 (Prensa Latina) The Israeli authorities have intensified the demolition of Palestinian structures in the occupied East Jerusalem as part of their Judaization plans in the city, several experts denounced on Wednesday.

The campaign is part of a clear strategy to facilitate the expulsion and population replacement operations, that is, to reduce the Palestinian presence there and strengthen Israeli control, they underscored in an interview with Al Quds newspaper.

The Palestinians hold only 13 percent of the city at present, Khalil al-Tufakji, an expert on that issue, warned.

The Israeli security vision requires settlements and outposts to facilitate operations to expel Arab citizens, the analyst stressed.

Al-Tufakji stressed that the Palestinians now make up 40 percent of the city’s total population, “a figure that led Israel to take measures to limit this increase.”
