For the first time since the 1967 occupation, Israel is expelling an entire Palestinian neighborhood in Jerusalem.

The Silwan area, located near the "Holy Basin," the Temple Mount, and Al-Aqsa Mosque, is rich in archaeological and historical sites of special importance.

As of April 2026, approximately 1,800 residents in Silwan are under threat of expulsion, after hundreds were already displaced in the past two years and left homeless. In Wadi al-Hawz alone, 33 families have already been expelled, and 53 additional families, including 130 children, face a similar fate. In al-Bustan, Israel has already demolished 48 homes and plans to demolish the homes of 123 more families, which would lead to the expulsion of about 1,450 people.

The expulsion in Silwan is part of a policy of ethnic cleansing across the entire West Bank.

2. No Anti-Semitism

Criticism of Zionism, Israel, or its policies is welcome. Racist or genocidal language against Jews as a people is not. This is an anti-Zionist, not anti-Jewish, space.

3. No Hate Speech or Incitement

Calls for violence against civilians are prohibited.

To counter this, members are encouraged to repost content from this community to other instances, social media, and platforms where it will reach a wider audience. The more places this reality is shared, the harder it becomes to ignore. Do not let Zionist-controlled media silence the truth. Spread it.
