The IDF, on Wednesday, demolished the home of one of the perpetrators of the terrorist attack that killed Tzeela Gez and her then-unborn son, the military announced.
Troops from the Ephraim Brigade destroyed the home of terrorist Jamil Samara in Burkin, near Jenin in the West Bank. Samara assisted terrorist Na'al Samara in carrying out the deadly shooting on May 14.
Na'al Samara had been killed by the IDF in May and the terror cell he belonged to was the subject of a joint investigation by the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency), the IDF, and the Israel Police.
The investigation found that the terror cell had also executed three other attacks including the March terror shooting in Ariel.
Terror attack en route to the hospital
Gez, a well-known and respected therapist and mother of three, and her husband, Hananel, were on their way to the hospital for the birth of their son when they were targeted in a shooting on Route 446.
Gez evacuated unconscious to Rabin Medical Center-Beilinson Campus, Petah Tikva, where doctors performed emergency surgery in a bid to save the baby.
Her baby, Ravid Haim was delivered and doctors immediately launched efforts to stabilize him. Gez was pronounced dead shortly after the delivery. Ravid Haim was transferred to Schneider Children's Medical Center where medical teams continued working on him until he too was pronounced dead two weeks later.
