Israel demolished the home of Farouk Ramadan, a Palestinian man who was killed during a settler attack in July, according to Al Jazeera English. Video footage released by the news outlet shows Israeli forces detonating explosives to destroy the residence, capturing the structure collapsing in the blast.
The demolition came months after Ramadan's death in the July incident involving settlers. Israeli authorities have not publicly explained the basis for ordering the destruction of the family home, which left relatives without shelter and raised questions about the military's justification for the operation.
