OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- Two Palestinian families in Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood in occupied Jerusalem were ordered on Saturday to evacuate their homes within 45 days, local sources said.

An Israeli lawyer sent the two families a warning that they would pay around 100 dollars for each extra day if those 45 days elapsed without abandoning their homes.

The message did not mention the name of the party that claimed ownership of those homes. Zionist settlers allege they own 28 houses in the eastern area of Sheikh Jarrah.

Meanwhile, Zionist settlers in the notorious Kiryat Arba settlement in Al-Khalil city set a Palestinian shop and apartment on fire near that settlement.

Mohammed Al-Ja'bari, who is an inhabitant of the Old City of Al-Khalil, said that neighbors alerted him that his shop was on fire at dawn Saturday.

He said that the fire destroyed the shop and a vacant apartment above it, charging that the settlers started the fire in front of the very eyes of the Israeli occupation forces, who provided protection for them.
