Order to demolish homes of Palestinians who perpetrated attacks unlawful and immoral

Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has ordered the demolition or sealing of the homes of the families of the Palestinians who carried out recent attacks against Israelis. This action constitutes harming the innocent. It is collective punishment that is both unlawful and immoral.

The security establishment has announced its intention to demolish or seal six homes: three in East Jerusalem, one in Nablus and one in Hebron:

Apartment of Ibrahim ‘Akari’s wife and young children, on third floor of 3-story building, Shu’fat.
Apartment of Muhammad Ja'abis’s mother, on second floor of two-story building, Jabal al-Mukabber.
Apartment of Mu'taz Hejazi’s parents, on first floor of building in Abu Tor, where his parents, brother and sister live.
Apartment of Maher Hashlamon’s wife and young children, on fourth floor of 5-story building, Hebron.
Home of Nur a-Din Abu Hashiyah’s parents, in ‘Askar Refugee Camp near Nablus. His parents live there with five
of their children, one of whom is a minor.
Home of the Shaludi family in Silwan.
