48. Multiple Palestinians in East Jerusalem were forced to carry out self-demolitions, as it is almost impossible for them to obtain building permits, owing to the discriminatory Israeli zoning and planning regime 97 and the imposition of large fines and charges.

The amendment furth er limits legal recourses against demolitions, reinforcing the discriminatory zoning and planning regime.98
