Zionist forces blow up a Palestinian house

Israeli regime forces have blown up the house of a Palestinian man in the occupied West Bank whom the Tel Aviv regime has accused of killing an illegal Zionist settler in December last year.

According to reports, an AFP correspondent reported that Israeli regime forces used explosives to destroy Mohammed Cabha’s house in Tura Village, southwest of the city of Jenin, on Wednesday night.

The Israeli military confirmed that it had demolished the house of the 40-year-old Palestinian man after entering the village last night.

The demolition of the house on Wednesday led to clashes between Israeli regime forces and Palestinians protesting the crime.

The Palestinian Prisoner Society (PPS) and the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas condemned the demolition of Cabha’s house in separate statements.

Israel routinely demolishes the houses of Palestinians whom it accuses of carrying out attacks against illegal Zionist settlers.

Israeli authorities also usually demolish Palestinian houses in the occupied al-Quds and elsewhere in the West Bank, claiming that the structures have been built without permits. They also sometimes order the Palestinian owners to tear down their own homes or pay the demolition costs to the municipality if they do not.

More than 600,000 Israelis live in over 230 settlements built since the 1967 Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and East Jerusalem al-Quds.
