Mount Hebron (TPS) – Israeli forces on Sunday night demolished the home of Mohammed Tarayreh, a 17 year-old Palestinian terrorist who killed an Israeli girl in her own bed in a terror attack in June.

Tarayreh, a resident of the village of Bani Na’im near Hebron, broke into 13-year-old Hallel Yaffa Ariel’s home in the Jewish community of Kiryat Arba and stabbed her to death. He was killed at the scene.

“My daughter was sleeping, calm and peaceful, and a terrorist just got into her bed and murdered her,” Hallel’s mother, Rina, told Israeli media after the attack.

The practice of home demolitions is controversial, with its proponents arguing that it deters future terrorists and its critics claiming that it constitutes collective punishment. Israel’s recently appointed defense minister, Avigdor Liberman, is a vocal advocate for the demolitions.
