New York, November 22 (RHC)-- Human Rights Watch (HRW) says Israel's policy of razing the homes of innocent Palestinians amounts to a war crime. The rights group called on Israel to immediately stop demolishing the homes of Palestinians whom the Tel Aviv regime suspects of carrying out attacks against Israelis.

The international non-governmental organization lashed out at Israel for deliberately punishing people who have not committed any wrongdoing.

“Punitive home demolitions are blatantly unlawful,” said HRW deputy Middle East and North Africa director Joe Stork, adding: “Israel should prosecute, convict, and punish criminals, not carry out vengeful destruction that harms entire families."

On Thursday, Israeli officials delivered a demolition notice to the families of four Palestinians whom they accuse of committing attacks in Jerusalem over the past month. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly ordered authorities to destroy the houses without providing any proof of their guilt or carrying out due process of law.
