The Israeli occupation army forcibly displaced 25 Palestinian families from the Khan al-Ahmar community, east of occupied Jerusalem.

Hassan Mleihat, the general coordinator of the Al-Baydar Organization for the Defense of Bedouin Rights, reported that the army forced the families to leave their homes following a series of attacks carried out by settlers under the protection of Israeli forces.

He added that the assaults included physical violence, intimidation, and property vandalism. Mleihat stressed that what happened reveals a systematic policy by the occupation to displace Bedouin communities around Jerusalem in order to expand settlements and impose new demographic and geographic realities on the ground.
