East Jerusalem

An Israeli demolition last month revived fears among residents of al-Bustan in east Jerusalem's Silwan neighborhood. "Yes, Bustan is going to be demolished for a park," says Jerusalem's deputy mayor.

The violent exchange followed intense clashes between Israeli police and Palestinians in Jerusalem, prompting Jewish organizers to cancel the annual Jerusalem Day march.

Rather than using two separate diplomatic missions to deal with Israelis and Palestinians, the U.S. will now have one. The U.S. diplomatic presence in Jerusalem dates to 1844.

Have the past week's developments changed anything in their conflict? Demands are the same and impasses remain, but the United States' role in potential peace talks appears to be shifting.

Israel has reshaped Jerusalem in a way that leaves many Palestinians struggling. About 38 percent of the city's residents are Palestinian. Tens of thousands live behind an Israeli-built barrier.

Human Rights Watch says Israel has revoked the residency papers of at least 14,595 Palestinians in East Jerusalem since Israel captured the territory from Jordan in 1967.

President Mahmoud Abbas said Friday the U.S. is not qualified to sponsor the peace process between Israelis and Palestinians because of President Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

After a deadly attack by a Palestinian militant last month, Israel blew up his apartment. Israel says the aim is deterrence, while others call it collective punishment.
