Occupation renames Jerusalem streets
The Israeli authorities continue their efforts to erase the Arab identity of the city of Jerusalem by changing street names and historic landmarks, including installing signs with Hebrew names and removing signs bearing the names of gates and streets with an Arab character. This aims to reshape the urban and intellectual landscape of the city and disconnect generations from their centuries-old Arab history. The authorities emphasize that these policies are not limited to administrative procedures but are intended to alter the cultural and historical character of Jerusalem, expressing their rejection of these ongoing practices that threaten the city's identity and Arab, Islamic, and Christian heritage. They affirm that attempts at replacement will not erase Jerusalem’s history or distort its national and civilizational memory.
