= settlement project:
In order to deepen and consolidate the demographic change, the occupation authorities deliberately push the original inhabitants of Jenderes towards displacement and reside in collective camps, as they stipulate that if they demand access to tents and aid, they leave their real estate and property to the militias that do not miss an opportunity to steal the contents of their homes and shops in any absence from them, And also in order to empty the city of its original inhabitants and pave the way for building a new settlement city for the recruits instead.
