Key issues

  • Israeli air strikes against Gazan targets resumed this week, reportedly in response to rocket firing by Palestinian militants, resulting in five Palestinian civilian injuries and extensive damage to over 20 houses and a school.

  • Initial information from the Khan al Ahmar community, in the Jerusalem periphery, suggests that the demolition and displacement threat against the community may have been temporarily removed. The level of risk for 19 other communities in the area remains high.
