Palestinian prisoner’s family home turned into rubble by Israeli army

Tuesday 24-April-2018

The Israeli occupation forces at daybreak Tuesday demolished the family home of Palestinian prisoner Ahmed al-Kunba’ in Jenin.

According to local sources Israeli soldiers closed off al-Basateen neighborhood in Jenin and ordered Palestinian families to evacuate their homes pending the demolition of al-Kunbur’s family home.

Fierce clashes flared up shortly after the occupation soldiers rolled into the area and targeted Palestinian anti-occupation youth with teargas canisters resulting in several suffocation cases.

Shortly before the demolition process the Israeli military forced journalists out of the area at gunpoint turning the neighborhood into a military barrack.

The demolition order was issued on charges that al-Kunba’ took part in an anti-occupation attack carried out by slain Ahmed Jarrar and which left an extremist Israeli rabbi dead.
