Israeli settlers usurp Palestinian Jerusalemite family home

A group of illegal Israeli settlers have thrown the Abul-Hawa family out of their home in occupied East Jerusalem, forcing the seven family members onto the street with their belongings.

The settlers broke into the house through a window. Fatimah Abul-Hawa, the mother of the family, said that she was shocked and surprised to see the intruders. The owner of the house, Mahmoud Abul-Hawa, was handed an eviction notice from the Israeli High Court, which claimed bizarrely that an anonymous person had bought the property and sold it on to the Ilad Organisation, to which the settlers belong.
