Jerusalem 1967-2020: The Truth About Annexation | | Ir Amim - Arab Media Internet Network - In June of 1967, Israel
conquered East Jerusalem and the West Bank (in addition to the Golan
Heights, the Sinai Peninsula, and the Gaza Strip). Later that month,
Israel unilaterally - and in contravention of international law - in
practice annexed the seven square kilometers of East Jerusalem, and
over 60 square kilometers of the West Bank that surrounds it. These
areas were incorporated together into one unit named ‘East
Jerusalem,’ subject to the Jerusalem municipality and to Israeli law.
Since 1967 until the present, this is the only area of the West Bank
that has actually been annexed to the State of Israel. Therefore, in
order to understand the consequences of annexation on both Israelis
and Palestinians, it is pertinent to learn from the case of East
Jerusalem. (rh) | 30/6/2020 |

Israel builds new Jerusalem road that will link settlements as government weighs West Bank annexation | | Stephen Farrell, Maayan Lubell, Rami Ayyub - Reuters - Construction
is under way on a major new ring road for Jerusalem that Israeli
officials say will benefit all of its residents, but critics of the
project say is another obstacle to Palestinian hopes to make East
Jerusalem the capital of a future state.
The bypass, called The American Road, will connect Jewish
settlements in the occupied West Bank that are north and south of
Jerusalem. The central and southern sections of the road are already
being built, and tenders for the northernmost stretch – at a
projected cost of $187 million – will be issued toward the end of
the year [ak]. | 16/6/2020 |

This is Jerusalem: Violence and Dispossession in al-‘Esawiyah | | B`Tselem - Since April 2019, the Israel Police has been engaged in a
campaign of abuse and collective punishment against the neighborhood
of al-‘Esawiyah in East Jerusalem. The operation continues, despite
social distancing restrictions announced by the government, putting
local residents in danger. One of the poorest neighborhoods in
Jerusalem, al-‘Esawiyah lies on the eastern slopes of the Mount
Scopus ridge, hemmed in by an array of Israeli institutions, Jewish
neighborhoods, military bases and roads built on its land. The
neighborhood is estimated to have 22,000 residents, and its
population density is 3.5 times the average population density in
Jerusalem. (rh) | 2/6/2020 |
