AI Summary

medium article 4 min

On December 2, 2025, Israeli forces demolished the family home of Abdul Karim Sanoubar, a Palestinian man accused of planting bombs on buses in central Israel, in Nablus, West Bank. The demolition occurred after Sanoubar's arrest in July for the alleged February bombing plot, in which no one was injured. The apartment building housed Sanoubar's extended family, totaling over 30 people, who were given two minutes to evacuate before the demolition. Sanoubar's family condemned the act as "collective punishment" and "terrorism," stating they are being unjustly targeted for the alleged actions of Abdul Karim Sanoubar. Israeli authorities have not yet commented on the demolition.
