TEHRAN (IQNA) – The Zionist regime’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been mulling the withdrawal of the Jerusalem blue identity cards of about 230,000 Palestinians living in the eastern outskirts of Quds (Jerusalem).

According to the source, Netanyahu’s proposal was discussed during a cabinet meeting about two weeks ago, and aims to withdraw the Jerusalem nationality from Palestinians living in the neighborhood districts of Shuafat refugee camp, Kafr Aqab, and as-Sawahreh, in addition to other districts that are located outside of the Israeli-erected segregation barrier.


Two weeks ago, the Israeli cabinet announced that Israeli police would be entitled to “impose a closure on” what it described as “centers of friction and incitement in Jerusalem” and “in accordance with security considerations.”


The cabinet also approved the revocation of residency status for Palestinians who carry out attacks on Israeli targets.


A human rights group has called the Israeli government’s response to recent escalation in the area as “the very inverse of what ought to be done” toward ending the violence.


“The events of recent weeks cannot be viewed in a vacuum, isolated from the reality of the ongoing, daily oppression of four million people, with no hope of change in sight,” the group said in a statement last week.
