Israeli practice of collective punishment for home demolitions in the West Bank

Israeli soldiers have carried out a home demolition in a refugee camp northwest of Ramallah, in the Occupied West Bank. The house belonged to a 41-year-old Palestinian man accused of killing an Israeli soldier at a checkpoint earlier this year. He was shot and killed in the incident. Israel has demolished 932 civilian structures so far this year. 180 of them, as punitive measures—a violation of international law.

Al Jazeera’s Zein Basravi reports from Deir Ammar refugee camp in the occupied west bank.
