Israeli forces early on Thursday demolished the Hebron home of a Palestinian terrorist who killed Ronen Chanania and wounded three others near Kiryat Arba in October 2022.
Israel Defense Forces troops along with Border Police officers carried out the demolition after the Supreme Court rejected a petition to halt the move.
The terrorist, Hamas member Muhammad al-Jabari, was shot dead by security forces during the attack.
Local Palestinians celebrated the killings.
On Wednesday, the Knesset passed legislation stripping the citizenship of terrorists who receive stipends from the Palestinian Authority as part of Ramallah’s “pay for slay” policy.
The new law, which drew support from opposition MKs, applies to Israeli citizens and permanent residents convicted of terrorism, aiding terrorism, inciting war or aiding an enemy. It gives the interior minister authority to revoke citizenship and resident status after a mandatory hearing and, if citizenship is revoked, deny entry of those expelled into Israel.
Israel’s Security Cabinet on Sunday approved a series of counter-terrorism measures, including reinforcing Israel Police and Border Police units in Yerushalayim and expanding operations against incitement and supporters of terrorism.
The move followed last Friday’s terror attack in Yerushalayim’s Ramot neighborhood that claimed the lives of Yaakov Yisroel Paley, 6, his brother, Asher Menachem Paley, 8, and 20-year-old R’ Alter Shlomo Lederman.
On Monday, Israeli soldier St.-Sgt. Asil Sawaed, 22, died from wounds sustained earlier in the day in a terrorist attack at a checkpoint to Shuafat in eastern Jerusalem. JNS
The end? There should be penalties for celebrating.
Jail a few.
It took 5 months from the terrorist family to empty their home so now finally they can demolish it. Now you can understand why terrorists families have no problem terrorizing Jews in Israel.
NOT ENOUGH!deport all family members of the terrorist to Gaza.
