Israeli occupation forces suppressed a prayer protest against home demolitions in the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan on Friday.

The sit-in took place in the Al-Bustan area of Silwan. Palestinian sources said that Israeli troops fired rubber-coated bullets, stun grenades, and skunk water against the locals. 

Israeli occupation authorities recently notified Nidal Al-Rajabi from the Al-Bustan area that his home would be demolished, as part of a broader policy of forced displacement against Palestinians in occupied Jerusalem.
