Meanwhile, the Israeli military on Saturday demolished the West Bank homes of four Palestinians who it said had carried out deadly attacks against Israelis.

Hundreds of the Israeli troops broke into the camp, and headed to the house of the Palestinian detainee Mohammed Abu Shaheen.
Tough clashes took place, when the IOF stormed the camp, eyewitnesses said. “The time has come for countries to condemn terrorism against us to the same degree that they condemn terrorism everywhere else in the world”, Netanyahu said at the start of a weekly cabinet meeting on Sunday, further adding Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas should renounce attacks on Israelis over recent weeks.
The presence of Israeli troops in the camp carrying out the demolition spurred Monday’s clashes.
Three “hits” were confirmed, the military said, without elaborating.
The Israeli army said it came under attack by hundreds of Palestinians throwing rocks and Molotov cocktails during the early morning demolition.
“Cases of excessive use of force by Israeli forces against Palestinians, including a few which appear to amount to summary executions, continue to be reported”, said the UN Special Rapporteur on the human rights situation in the Palestinian Territories, Makarim Wibisono, and the expert on summary executions, Christof Heyns.
The case was brought against the group after Israeli security forces attempted to stop a group of six aid ships trying to reach Gaza, which ended in the death of 10 activists, eight of whom were Turkish nationals.
Israel closed entrances to Hebron and arrested 20 suspects in the area while searching for the shooter over the weekend.
The violence was sparked by disputes over access to a holy site in Jerusalem’s Old City that is sacred to both Muslims and Jews.
It said the three homes in Nablus belonged to attackers who killed an Israeli couple in front of their children in the West Bank on 1 October.

Israeli soldiers forced residents to evacuate their homes in the camp before demolishing the top floor of an apartment belonging to Muhammad Abu Shahin, who allegedly killed an Israeli settler in June of this year.
