| [IsraelTimes] IDF troops demolish the home of a Palestinian accused of being an accomplice in a deadly terror shooting attack in the West Bank in May, during which a pregnant woman was killed, forcing doctors to perform an emergency C-section to deliver her son, who died two weeks later. In the attack on May 14 near the Palestinian village of Bruqin and the Israeli settlement of Bruchin, a Palestinian terrorist opened fire from the side of a road on Israeli motorists, killing Tzeela Gez, 30, and wounding her husband. Gez had been heading to a hospital to give birth. Her baby, named Ravid Haim, was delivered by emergency C-section at Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva but died 15 days later. The gunman, Naael Samarah, a member of Hamas, was shot and killed by IDF troops in the area four days later. Three more Hamas terrorists were later arrested for their alleged involvement in the attack. Among them was Maher Samarah. The military says troops operated in the West Bank town of Bruqin today to raze Maher Samarah’s home. Naael Samarah’s home was demolished in September, and the home of another accomplice, Jamil Samarah, was razed last month. As a matter of policy, Israel demolishes the homes of Palestinians accused of carrying out deadly terror attacks.
