Israeli Forces Kill 3 Palestinians in West Bank; Israel’s Top Court Suspends Sheikh Jarrah Expulsions

HeadlineMar 02, 2022

In the occupied West Bank, three Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces in two separate attacks Tuesday. The youngest reported death was 18-year-old Shadi Khaled Najm.

In other news from the region, Israel’s Supreme Court has suspended, for now, the expulsion of four Palestinian families from their homes in the occupied East Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah. Israeli settlers were attempting to seize their land, but the dispute will now have to undergo a legal process that could take years or not be completed at all. Palestinian families have been resisting the dispossession of their homes in Sheikh Jarrah for generations.
