Israel reduces activists homes to rubble

The Israeli occupation troops demolished at predawn time Tuesday the family homes of two Palestinian activists from Occupied Jerusalem who were killed in anti-occupation attacks last year.

As the Israeli occupation government vowed to crackdown on a wave of anti-occupation activism, the Israeli soldiers demolished the family homes of Ghassan Abu Jamal and Muhammed Ja’abis.

The Israeli troops further sealed off a room in the residence of Mu’taz Hijazi in Occupied Jerusalem with concrete piles in possible preparation for demolition as well.

The demolitions came hours after Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to expedite the punitive measures following a surge in anti-occupation attacks in Occupied Jerusalem and the West Bank in recent weeks.

Despite the recent uptick in terror attacks by Israeli soldiers and vandals, Netanyahu threatened to send thousands of additional policemen and soldiers into Occupied Jerusalem and West Bank areas in order to quell further anti-occupation protests.

He also ordered a wider use of arbitrary administrative detentions against the Palestinians and slapping entry ban on those who show any form of resistance to Israeli violence in Jerusalem’s Old City and the Aqsa Mosque.

Netanyahu further charged occupation officials with setting up a mechanism that would expedite arbitrary home demolitions against Palestinian activists.
