For 2nd time, IDF demolishes home of gunman who killed soldier at checkpoint in 2023
[IsraelTimes] In a rare move, the IDF demolishes the home of a Palestinian gunman who killed an Israeli soldier at a checkpoint near Jerusalem in 2023, after the home was rebuilt following its first demolition last year.

Overnight, IDF troops operated in the West Bank city of Hebron to demolish the home of Abdelqader Qawasmeh.

Qawasmeh was one of three members of the Hamas terror group who attacked the “tunnels” checkpoint on the West Bank’s Route 60, south of Jerusalem in November 2023, killing Cpl. Avraham Fetena, a Military Police soldier.

As a matter of policy, Israel demolishes the homes of Palestinians accused of carrying out deadly attacks. Rarely does Israel re-demolish homes that are rebuilt.

Israel defends the practice of razing the family home of attackers as a deterrent against future assaults. Over the years, a number of Israeli defense officials have questioned the efficacy of the practice, and human rights activists have denounced it as unfair collective punishment.

IDF to demolish home of Hamas gunman who carried out terror shooting on West Bank bus last year

[IsraelTimes] The Israel Defense Forces announces it will demolish the home of Hamas terrorist Samir Hussein, who injured a number of civilians in a shooting attack near the West Bank settlement city of Ariel last year.

Hussein’s home is located in the West Bank village of Einabus, near the city of Nablus.

Ten people were wounded, three of them seriously, when Hussein opened fire at a civilian bus. He was shot dead by security forces.

Hussein, a member of Hamas, was previously jailed by Israel for his activities in the terror group, according to the Shin Bet.

His family can appeal the decision to demolish the home, but such attempts rarely succeed.
