ISTANBUL, (PIC)--

Fawzia Sidqi Jaber, who was kicked out of her home in occupied Jerusalem at the hands of Israeli occupation police that handed the house to Jewish settlers, has asked the Turkish authorities to publish the title deeds of Palestinian lands, which are retained in the Ottoman archive.

Fawzia, also known as Um Kamel Al-Kurd, in a press conference in Istanbul on Saturday appealed to the Turkish government to preserve this archive because it contained historical documents on the land of Palestine.

She said that those documents could block the Israeli scheme to establish new outposts in occupied Jerusalem especially in Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood.

Fawzia was addressing the press conference along with the Saadet Party chairman Numan Kortlmos, who asked the Turkish government to publish those documents.

He also asked for greater Islamic support for the Palestine cause.

Um Kamel had told an earlier press conference in Istanbul that she would never leave Jerusalem regardless of the circumstances.

She also warned of an Israeli scheme to wipe out all Arab and Islamic landmarks in the holy city and to judaize it entirely by 2020.
