Overnight, IDF troops demolished the home of a Palestinian accused of aiding two Hamas

Overnight, IDF troops demolished the home of a Palestinian accused of aiding two Hamas terrorists in carrying out a shooting attack in Tel Aviv on October 1 that left seven people dead and 16 wounded.

Abd al-Rahim Himouni was part of a Hamas cell that planned the deadly attack at a light rail station in the Jaffa area, although he -- and another suspect -- did not join the two terrorists on the night of the attack because they did not have guns, according to an indictment filed last year.

The military says troops operated in the West Bank city of Hebron overnight to raze Himouni's home.

The homes of the two terrorists who perpetrated the attack, Ahmed Himouni and Mohammad Mesek, were demolished by the army in March.

As a matter of policy, Israel demolishes the homes of Palestinians accused of carrying out deadly terror attacks.
