Israeli troops along with Border Police officers and the Civil Administration carried out the demolition of Kabha’s home, located on the third floor of an apartment building.
According to the Palestinian Wafa News Agency, the demolition of Kabha’s 150-square meter apartment, in a building owned by his father Rateb Kabha, caused damage to other apartments in the building
Palestinians and human rights groups criticize the army for using collective punishment by demolishing the homes of the Palestinian families.
When the demolition order was issued for Kabha’s home at the beginning of May, two of his family members petitioned the Supreme Court, arguing that it was contrary to international law .
In addition, they argued, Kabha only lived in part of the apartment that was also inhabited by his wife, daughter and brother.The petition was rejected by Supreme Court Justices Noam Solberg, Daphne Barak-Erez, and David Mintz.
