Israel escalated its repressive bloody actions as a new fundamental mayor, Nir Barka, reached the office lately.

The mayor has requested the demolition of tens of Palestinian houses in Kafir Silwad to minimize the Palestinians in occupied Jerusalem.
More than 150 Israeli settlers armed by guns and heavy military means attacked Hebron city. Many houses were stormed in towns of Jabir, Wadi Nasara and Wadi Ehsan near the holly mosque of Abarahm.
Lately, 4 Palestinian shops were occupied by the MANIAC settlers in the old market of Hebron City. Dogs, animals and other means are being used by Israeli settlers to force Palestinians to leave their houses.
Thousands of Hicaters were confiscated as successive Israeli government implemented plans of Judaization Jerusalem. Thousands of houses were occupied and tens of Israeli settlers forcibly dwelled in the occupied houses.

It's expected that a new big plan to be set into practice to tie Malli Admim settlement and occupied Jerusalem. The plan which included more than 3600 housing utilities was frozen upon harsh pressure from U.S. administration.

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- Three Palestinians were wounded when dozens of Israeli settlers attacked their Saadiya neighborhood in occupied Jerusalem on Sunday evening, local sources reported.
They said that fistfights took place between the attacking settlers, who tried to force their way into one of the homes in the suburb, and citizens who defended their homes.
Israeli occupation forces protected the settlers and later intervened to stop the fight after the citizens forcefully defended their homes, which led to the injury of three of them and the detention of three others.
In a related development, Sheikh Azzam Al-Khatib, the director of Islamic Waqf department in Jerusalem, revealed that the Israeli occupation authority had taken away an ancient rock that dates back to the Umayyad era from the southeast area of the holy Aqsa Mosque.
Khatib said that Israeli technical teams used a giant crane to extract the big rock from one of the ancient Umayyad palaces and took it away in a big lorry.
He said that his department filed a protest with the police department that denied knowledge of the incident.
