Jerusalem, 8 July, 2021 (TPS-IL) -- The IDF demolished on Thursday morning the home of the terrorist Muntasar Shalabi who murdered yeshiva student Yehuda Gueta.

Shalabi, shot at a group of Yeshiva students waiting at a bus stop in Samaria at the beginning of May, killing Gueta, 19, and wounding two of his friends.

He was captured by Israeli forces after a manhunt that lasted a few days.

The demolition of the home in the village of Turmus-Aya in Samaria was carried out after the terrorist’s family filed a petition with the High Court of Justice, which rejected it.

During the operation, about 200 Arab rioters threw stones and launched fireworks at the troops, who responded by dispersing demonstrations.

The demolitions of terrorists’ homes are meant to serve as deterrence for potential terrorists plotting future attacks.
