Jenin (QNN)- Israeli occupation forces on Saturday morning blew up a Palestinian detainee house in Silat al-Harithiya town in Jenin, as a punitive measure as he is accused of carrying out a December shooting operation along with five others. Local sources reported the Israeli occupation forces, in the early hours of this morning, raided the town of Silat al-Harithiya and surrounded its entrances.

That time, the Israeli occupation forces raided the town of Silat al-Harithiya and took the measures of the four houses: house of Ahmed Muhammad Yassin Jaradat, the father of brothers Ghaith and Omar who are accused of carrying out the shooting operation that took place on December 16, near the illegal settlement of Homesh, north of Nablus, leaving an Israeli settler killed, and the houses of Muhammad Youssef Jaradat, Ibrahim Musa Tahaineh, Mahmoud Ghaleb Jaradat, and Taher Abu Salah who are all accused of helping the two brotehrs. The occupation forces arrested the youths after raiding their homes in Jenin and turning it upside-down. As of that time, the residents of the houses have been evacuating the furniture; the demolition operations will make over 30 people homeless. https://twitter.com/QudsNen/status/1472825651375788034?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1472825651375788034%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fqudsnen.co%2Fas-punitive-measure-israel-blows-up-house-of-palestinian-prisoner-in-jenin%2F In February, the occupation blew up the house of Mahmoud Ghaleb Jaradat. https://twitter.com/QudsNen/status/1493120112039276544?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1493120112039276544%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fqudsnen.co%2F34519-2%2F https://twitter.com/QudsNen/status/1493122268704251909?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1493122268704251909%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fqudsnen.co%2F34519-2%2F The Israeli occupation state has used house demolition as a collective punitive measure against the families of Palestinians, who carry out resistance operations. Hundreds of houses have been demolished within this policy since 1967, leaving thousands of Palestinians homeless despite they had done no wrong and were not suspected of any wrongdoing. This policy constitutes collective punishment, which is prohibited and violates binding provisions of international law: in the Geneva Convention (“No protected person may be punished for an offence he or she has not personally committed. Collective penalties and likewise all measures of intimidation or of terrorism are prohibited. Pillage is prohibited. Reprisals against protected persons and their property are prohibited”).
