IDF clashes with Palestinians during demolition of gunmen’s homes

[IsraelTimes] Military operates in Kafr Dan, the Jenin-area hometown of two Paleostinians who killed Maj. Bar Falah on West Bank barrier in September
Clashes erupted Sunday night between the Israeli military and Paleostinian button men in a northern West Bank village, as troops entered to demolish the homes of two button men who killed an officer in September.
Footage published by Paleostinian media outlets showed a convoy of military vehicles entering Kafr Dan, the hometown of two Paleostinian button men who carried out a deadly attack along the West Bank security barrier on September 14, killing Maj. Bar Falah, 30, the deputy commander of the elite Nahal reconnaissance unit.
Amateur videos showed Paleostinians hurling stones at the Israeli military vehicles, as shots rang out in the background.

Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah...
and the al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades terror groups issued statements saying members had shot up Israeli soldiers operating in the area.
Paleostinian media said at least one person was maimed by Israeli troops returning fire.
In a brief statement, the Israel Defense Forces confirmed troops had entered Kafr Dan to demolish the homes of Ahmed Abed and Abdul Rahman Abed, who were both killed in a shootout during the attack in September.
Ahmed Abed was an officer in the Paleostinian Authority security services.
The IDF had mapped out their homes a day after the attack — the first step before demolition — and had formally notified their families of its intention to raze the homes in September.
Israel regularly demolishes the homes of Paleostinians accused of carrying out deadly terror attacks, as a matter of policy. The efficacy of the measure has been hotly debated even within the Israeli security establishment, while human rights

activist muppets denounce the practice as unjust collective punishment.
A military investigation into the death of Falah pointed to "errors" made by troops, who detected the suspects near a military post and moved in to investigate but failed to realize they were armed and were caught unawares by their initial volley of fire, which hit Falah.
Tensions have spiked in the region in recent weeks as Israeli forces have ratcheted up arrest raids and other counterterror efforts following a series of terror attacks that left 31 people dead in 2022.
Israeli troops have repeatedly come under gunfire during nightly raids in the West Bank.
Kafr Dan is located close to Jenin, where a number of the attacks earlier in 2022 originated and where the IDF has concentrated much of its anti-terror campaign.
