Israel Arrests Relatives of Palestinian Man Behind Jerusalem Attack

HeadlineNov 23, 2021

In occupied East Jerusalem, Israeli soldiers shot dead a Palestinian man after he killed an Israeli settler and wounded three others Sunday. The confrontation took place in the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound — the site of recent attacks from Israeli police. In a statement, Hamas said the Palestinian man was politically affiliated with the armed resistance movement in the Gaza Strip. Israeli forces immediately raided the refugee camp where he lived, in retaliation, and arrested several of his family members, including his daughter.
