The IDF says troops operated in the West Bank village of Shuweika near Tulkarem overnight and demolished the home of a Palestinian terrorist involved in a deadly shooting attack.

Tamer Faqha was part of a cell that killed off-duty IDF reservist Sgt. First Class (res.) Elhanan Klein near the West Bank town of Bayt Lid on November 2, 2023.

Faqha was killed, along with other members of the cell, by Israeli forces in May.

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