The Israeli army announced today, Wednesday, that it intends to demolish the house of the perpetrator of the shooting attack in the Neve Yaakov neighborhood, at the entrance to the Ateret Avraham Synagogue, in the city of Jerusalem, two weeks ago.

According to a statement by the Israeli army, it was decided to demolish the apartment in which the perpetrator of the Jerusalem attack, Khairy Alqam, lived.

On January 27 of this year, seven Israelis were killed outside a synagogue in a neighborhood inhabited by Jews belonging to the ultra-orthodox Haredi sect in Jerusalem, and three others were injured, while the perpetrator of the attack, Khairy Alqam, was martyred.

Following the decision of the political leadership, the Jerusalem District Police, Special Forces soldiers, and the Israeli Army, within twenty-four hours, closed the house of Khairy Alqam, the perpetrator of the Neve Yacoub operation, in the Al-Tur area in the city of Jerusalem.
