Seventy MPs condemn attempted eviction of Palestinian family from East Jerusalem home by a ‘charity’
Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank

SEVENTY cross-party MPs have condemned the attempted eviction of a Palestinian family from their East Jerusalem home by a “charity.” 

The Jewish National Fund (JNF) is a registered charity in Britain, yet campaigners allege that it has funnelled donations into the displacement of Palestinians. 

The organisation is behind a 30-year drive to evict the Sumarin family from their home in Silwan, a Jerusalem neighbourhood just south of the Old City’s walls that is the site of the City of David.
