Israeli, Palestinian and foreign activists, hold banners, during a demonstration against Israeli occupation and settlement activity in the Palestinian territories and east Jerusalem, near the Israeli police checkpoint at the entrance of the Shiekh Jarrah neighbourhood

STORYLINE

Tensions between Israel and Palestinians that lead to military violence last month, initially flared in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood of occupied east Jerusalem, where Israeli police cracked down on people protesting the planned expulsion of Palestinian families from their homes so Jewish settlers could move in.

The defending human rights organization, Al-Haq, said in a statement: "Despite the fact that East Jerusalem is occupied and illegally annexed and the majority of the population in East Jerusalem are Palestinians and that Israeli settlers reside illegally in occupied East Jerusalem, Israeli zoning laws have allocated 35 per cent of the land area for the construction of illegal settlement by Israeli settlers, and 52 per cent of East Jerusalem has been allocated as "green areas" and "unplanned areas" in which construction is prohibited."
