Israel Resumes Destroying Palestinian Homes; Thousands Attend Funeral for Jerusalem Victims

HeadlineNov 20, 2014

The Israeli government has resumed destroying the homes of Palestinians accused of involvement in recent attacks on Israelis. On Wednesday, Israeli forces demolished a home in occupied East Jerusalem belonging to the extended family of a driver who ran his car into two pedestrians last month. The Israeli human rights group B’Tselem says the home demolitions are “illegal and immoral.” The move came as part of a new crackdown vowed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu following the killing of five Israelis in a Jerusalem synagogue. Thousands of people attended the victims’ funerals in Jerusalem on Wednesday.
