London: Talk on rebuilding Holy Land peace centre

Before the demolition

In January, Beit Arabiya the home to the Shawamreh family and a peace centre, was demolished for the fifth time in 15 years by the Israeli authorities.

Beit Arabiya hosts groups visiting the area with the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD), and has come to symbolise Palestinian resistance to home demolitions and unity between the two communities. Beit Arabiya will be rebuilt next summer by both local people and international volunteers.

Next Monday, 23 April, at 7pm, Jeff Halper, director and founder of the ICAHD will be telling the story of Beit Arabiya and the shocking facts about home demolition at All Hallows on the Wall, London EC2M 5ND

This talk hosted by Amos Trust, Greenbelt Festival and ICAHD UK forms part of a UK tour to raise money to rebuild Beit Arabiya.
