Jerusalem - Israelis on Wednesday entered a home in eastern Jerusalem 25 years after the building was initially acquired from its Arab owners.
The families entered their new home in Kfar Shiloach (Silwan) after an Israeli court rejected the final petitions on the legality of the purchase and after police evicted the Arab inhabitants, who refused to leave the premises and ignored the court order.
The building was acquired by the Elad organization from the previous owners.
