Israeli Occupation Resumes Demolition of Al-Yusufiya Cemetery in Occupied Jerusalem
Israeli occupation forces assaulted residents opposing the demolition of the Islamic cemetery, and the defacing of the graves and headstones of their children.
The occupation's al-Quds municipality resumed on Tuesday digging operations in the al-Yusufiya cemetery in occupied Jerusalem, in order to open a public park.
Occupation vehicles surrounded the land it intends to turn into a park as part of its "Torah Gardens" project. "Israel's" unethical demolition of the graves is based on claims that the area "belonged to Jews" in old times.
