IDF demolishes home of second terrorist behind deadly Ramot Junction attack

Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent

IDF troops demolished the home of the second of two Palestinian terrorists who carried out a shooting attack in Jerusalem in September that killed six people, the military says.

Overnight, the IDF says troops operated in the West Bank town of Qatanna, near Ramallah, and razed the house of Mohammad Taha, 21.

Taha carried out the attack at Jerusalem’s Ramot Junction on September 6, along with Muthanna Amro, 20, from the nearby town of Qubeiba.

As a matter of policy, Israel demolishes the homes of Palestinians accused of carrying out deadly terror attacks.

Amro’s home was demolished by the IDF on September 27.
