December 19, 2016

The Israeli Supreme Court ratified the decision to demolish the apartment of Martyr Musbah Abu Sbeih in the neighborhood of Kufor Aqab north of Jerusalem.

Jaber Abu Sbeih, the Martyr’s brother, explained that the Israeli court ratified the demolition order which they received nearly a month ago. The family appealed the demolition order at the Supreme Court which responded by ratifying it.

Abu Sbeih added that the occupation authorities decided to demolish the internal walls and to close the apartment of Martyr Musbah which is part of a residential building. The Martyr’s family (wife and five children) has been living in the apartment. 

According to the court’s decision, the apartment of Martyr Musbah will be closed and demolished for “deterrence”.

The occupation authorities continue to detain the body of Martyr Musbah Abu Sbeih since last October after he carried out a shooting attack in the neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah that led to the death of one Special Forces person and a female settler.
