The Israeli Supreme Court has ruled that a Palestinian home which has already been demolished by the Israeli authorities four times can be demolished yet again.
Since 1967, the Israeli authorities have demolished more than 24,000 Palestinian homes in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.Today, At least a dozen more Palestinian families in East Jerusalem received demolition orders by the Israeli military.
Jeff Halper with the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions told KBOO that the issue of home demolitions is one indication of the larger injustice of the Israeli occupation.
