Pictures: Raiding Wadi Hilweh Information Center in Silwan
March 10, 2016

Joint crews of municipality employees, Nature and Parks authority and Israeli forces raided on Thursday morning Wadi Hilweh Information Center in Silwan.

Majd Gheith from the Information Center explained that occupation forces raided the center and checked his ID and then took pictures of the pictures hung on the walls; an officer said they were inciting.

Gheith added that the forces issued the center a 475-NIS ticket under the pretext of placing a rope in front the center’s gate that is used to protect children when leaving the center. The forces gave the center 7 days to remove it or they will raid the center again.

Gheith pointed out that the center placed the rope few months ago to protect the children from being run-over especially that the municipality neglects the locals’ needs in terms of parking spots and sidewalks.
