Israeli forces demolished the martyr Fadi Abu Shukhaydam’s house in Shuafat refugee camp east of Occupied Jerusalem on Tuesday morning.
The Quds Press affirmed that “Israeli forces stormed the area in large numbers accompanied by demolition equipment before they surrounded the building and started the demolition process.
Earlier on Sunday the Israeli high court of justice rejected an appeal filed by human rights group HaMoked against the intended demolition of martyr Fadi Abu Shukhaydam’s house.
Commenting on the court’s order a spokesman for the Israeli occupation army said that the army intends to raze the house as soon as possible.
On November 21 Abu Shukhaydam opened fire at settlers and officers in the alleyways of the Old City of Occupied Jerusalem killing one and injuring four others two of them seriously. Police officers returned fire and killed him on the scene.
Along the same line Israeli forces demolished on Monday the house of the prisoner Ghaith Jaradat in the town of Silat Al-Harithiya west of Jenin after an Israeli court rejected his family’s appeal against the move.
Earlier this month Ghaith Jaradat’s family was given a demolition order for being allegedly involved in a deadly shooting attack near the illegal settlement of Homesh along with his brother Omar.
As part of its collective punishment policy the Israeli occupation authority systematically demolishes homes of Palestinians whose relatives are accused of carrying out deadly shooting operations.
