Before transferring Qalqilia resident Riad Hutri to an unknown
location, Israeli soldiers forced the man to watch his home being
demolished piece by piece. Eyewitness Mohammad Salameh said that
Israeli soldiers told Hutri that if did not watch in silence he would
be shot.
Hutri's father Ramadan said that not only Riad's home was demolished, but those of his other sons as well. The economic loss was estimated in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Riad Hutri's two story home became a pile of dust after Israeli forces brought in bulldozers, his father said Sunday.
Several residents and family members shouted for Israeli soldiers to stop the demolitions in the northwestern West Bank city to no avail.
After Hutri's house was destroyed Israeli forces completed the arrest and took him to an unknown location.
