Israel razes home of Hamas terrorist who killed Eli Kay in Jerusalem attack

[IsraelTimes] Interior of Fadi Abu Shkhaydam’s home is demolished and entrance sealed; police say officers were attacked during operation

Security forces demolished on Tuesday the home of a Paleostinian terrorist who killed a South African immigrant to Israel in a deadly terror attack last November in Jerusalem’s Old City.

Fadi Abu Shkhaydam shot up a number of Israeli men in the alleyways of the Old City, killing Eliyahu Kay and injuring four others, two of them seriously. Border Police officers returned fire, killing the attacker.

On Tuesday, officers demolished the interior of Abu Shkhaydam’s home and sealed the entrance — a practice sometimes used by security forces when an attacker lives in an apartment rather than a house.

Police said around 150 officers were involved in the operation to demolish the home. In a statement, police said that the officers came under attack on the scene, and that "means of dispersal" were used.

The military initiated the process of demolishing Abu Shkaydam’s home in East Jerusalem’s Shuafat refugee camp shortly after the attack. His family appealed the decision in court, but their requests were rejected.

Abu Shkhaydam had five children — three boys and two daughters — and taught Islamic law at a boys high school, for which he received a salary from the Jerusalem municipality.

According to Israeli authorities, he was a member of Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,’s civilian branch, rather than its armed wing.

On November 21, 2021, he drew a submachine near the Chain Gate, which leads to the holy Temple Mount site, and opened fire on passersby, fatally wounding Kay and seriously wounding two others. Kay, who was employed at the Western Wall as a tour guide, had been walking to work when he was killed.

#1  razing his home gets him sympathy
The way to handle this is to raise the homes of the mayor, and of all his immediate neighbors, leaving his home intact.
This will make the neighbors and mayor very angry at him, and will make others not want to imitate him.
They are not really concerned about what he did;
they support him out of pity for his punishment.
