The occupation forces raided the house of the Alqam family late on Friday evening, "hours after a shooting attack carried out by the martyr Khairy Alqam in the Nabi Yaqoub settlement."
The family explained that the forces completely prevented them from entering house, until a decision was made to empty its contents.
The family explained that the soldiers turned the house of the martyr Khairy and its surroundings into a military barracks, by preventing entry to the house and using very strict procedures to enter the building, which includes other houses.
