3 October 2018, Jerusalem, Occupied Palestinian Territories: As night falls, men, women and children lay down on simple mattresses to rest through the night, not knowing how long the community will be allowed to remain in Khan al Ahmar. Khan al Ahmar is a Bedouin community located within the East Jerusalem Periphery, in E1 area. It is home to 32 families, 173 persons in total, including 92 children and youths. The community has a mosque and a school, which was built in 2009 and serves more than 150 children between the ages of six and fifteen, from Khan al Ahmar and other nearby communities. With due date 1 October 2018, Israeli authorities threaten to demolish the site, thereby making room for nearby Israeli settlements to expand.
