The Israeli municipality of West Jerusalem has issued two demolition orders against two buildings in Shu’fat refugee camp, in occupied East Jerusalem, under the pretext of construction without permit, according to local WAFA sources.
Sources said that Israeli police and border guards accompanied municipality staff who presented the camp’s popular committee members with demolition orders against a vocational training center and an all-purpose hall that was under construction.
The municipality said that the two buildings were not licensed, even though construction within refugee camps is supervised by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA).
