PLO warns against Israeli policy of “ethnic cleansing”, calls on Arab states to “stop all types of normalization" with Israel

“The PLO Executive Committee warned against the policy of ethnic cleansing that the Israeli occupation state is implementing, particularly in Jerusalem and its surroundings, including taking over the properties of the churches [and] damaging the residential buildings in the Wadi Al-Hummus neighborhood (located in the Sur Baher neighborhood of Jerusalem –Ed.) after the Israeli Supreme Court approved the decision ruling to demolish 16 residential buildings containing 100 apartments, which are located – according to the agreements that were signed between the two sides – within Area A belonging to the Palestinian Authority (the buildings were built illegally in proximity to the security fence; see note below –Ed.)…
The Executive Committee repeated its call on all relevant Arab states to stop all types of normalization with the Israeli occupation state, and emphasized the need to honor their commitments that are explicitly noted in the Arab Peace Initiative and their commitments to the boycott regulations determined by the Arab League.”
