Bedouin Palestinian community with Sewage water, in an
attempt to force the inhabitants to leave their Dwellings,
just as the ultimatum set by the Israeli court for their
displacement went into effect, Monday.
<p>Abdullah Abu Rahma, a senior nonviolent activist and
the head of Save al-Khan al-Ahmar Campaign, said both
the Israeli soldiers and the colonialist settlers are
constantly increasing the suffering of the Palestinians,
and continuously violating their rights, even their very
existence, in order to remove and displace them.</p>
<p>Abu Rahma said the assailants, from Kfar Adumim illegal
colony, flooded the community with Sewage water, in yet
another means of assaults and violations against nearly
200 Palestinians, including children.</p>
<p>“Both the settlers and the soldiers are partaking in
these violations and war on the inhabitants of a-Khan
al-Ahmar,” he said, “But the violations, and isolation
of the community, will not only increase the
steadfastness and determination of the villagers.”</p>
<p>He also called for increasing the support and
solidarity with the Bedouin community, to foil the
illegal Israeli plans of displacement, and replacing the
Palestinians with illegal colonialist settlers.</p>
<p>Eid Abu Dahouk, the mayor of al-Khan al-Ahmar, said
that “by flooding the community with sewage, the
colonialist settlers are engaging in a new form of war
against the inhabitants.</p>
<p>He warned of the grave consequences, and health risks
resulting from this serious violation against al-Khan
al-Ahmar, especially the children, in addition to the
livestock, the only source of livelihood of the
families.</p>
<p>The Palestinians, along with international peace
activists, are ongoing with their nonviolent protests in
al-Khan al-Ahmar, despite the constant assaults,
violations and threats of forceful eviction.</p>
<p>On September 5<sup>th</sup>, the Israeli supreme court
denied an appeal against the demolition of the
Palestinian community, and ordered its removal and
displacement.</p>
<p>The first ruling by the court was made in May of this
year, when it granted the military a green light for
demolishing it.</p>
<p>There are approximately 200 Palestinians living in
al-Khan al-Ahmar, %53 of them are children, and %95 of
the population are refugees officially registered by the
UNRWA. The community has one school providing education
to 170 children.</p>
<p>It is worth mentioning that al-Khan al-Ahmar is
surrounded by several illegal Israeli colonies, while
Israel wants to remove it as part of its E1 colonialist
project, which aims at surrounding occupied Jerusalem
with a chain of Jewish-only colonies, and blocking the
geographical contiguity of the occupied West Bank, and
completely isolating the Palestinians from Jerusalem.</p>
