In East Jerusalem, 1 Palestinian family demolished their own home in Jabel Mukaber, displacing 2. In Haifa, 3 were arrested for waiving Palestinian flags during a protest against disproportionate punishment of Palestinian citizens of Israel during the unrest that coincided with Israel’s Operation Guardian of the Wall in May 2021.
