DEMOLITIONS IN EAST JERUSALEM – Early Day Motions

That this House condemns the demolition of Palestinian buildings in the Sur Baher neighbourhood in East Jerusalem; notes that this is an area under the control of the Palestinian Authority under the Oslo Accords; further notes that these demolitions have been condemned by the EU, UN and both Israeli and Palestinian human rights organisations; believes that such demolitions set back the prospects for peace and a two-state solution; and calls on Her Majesty’s Government to condemn these demolitions and make representations to the Government of Israel to cease these demolitions immediately.
