The Israeli municipality of West Jerusalem forced a Palestinian resident of the Az-Za’ayyem neighborhood, in Jerusalem, to self-demolish his home, Wafa reports.

The house owner, Dirar Darwish, said the Israeli municipality gave him 24 hours to demolish his 100 square-meter house, a home for five people, or else the Israeli municipality would demolish it and obligate him to pay the exorbitant costs.
