Israel: UN experts condemn forced eviction of east Jerusalem families

GENEVA (12 July 2023) – The forced eviction and displacement of the Ghaith-Sub Laban family and many other Palestinian families in east Jerusalem may amount to a war crime of forcible transfer and must be immediately reversed, UN experts* said today. “It is deeply shocking and heartbreaking to see Nora Ghaith and Mustafa Sub Laban, an elderly Palestinian couple, evicted from their family home where they have lived all their lives and raised their children,” the UN experts said.
