Israeli police say that security personnel have sealed up the family home of a Palestinian man who careened his car into a Jerusalem bus stop, killing three Israelis and injuring several others.
Ultra-Orthodox Jews mourn over the body of 8-year-old child Asher Menahem Paley after he died of injuries suffered a day before in a car-ramming attack by a Palestinian man during his funeral in Jerusalem, Saturday, Feb. 11, 2023. A Palestinian man plowed a car into a crowded bus stop in east Jerusalem on Friday, killing two more people, including Paley's six-year-old brother, and injuring five others before being shot and killed, Israeli police said.
Earlier Sunday, Israeli security forces sealed up the family home of the Palestinian attacker in a first step ahead of the possible demolition of the apartment. Late Sunday, Netanyahu's office said his Security Cabinet unanimously authorized the legalization of nine settlement outposts, which were built without authorization but have been largely tolerated by a string of Israeli governments. It said a settlement planning committee would meet in the coming days “to approve the construction of new homes in existing settlements” in the West Bank.
During a visit last month, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the U.S. would oppose “anything” that undermines hopes of a two-state solution, including settlement construction built on occupied lands sought by the Palestinians.In Jerusalem, police had arrested and interrogated Qaraqa’s family almost immediately after he carried out Friday’s deadly attack. It said that a court had extended the detention of his two brothers and that the investigation was ongoing.
