RAMALLAH, December 8, 2015 (WAFA) – The three Palestinian Arabic dailies focused in their Tuesday issue on Israeli troops’ shooting and killing of a Palestinian youth in Hebron on Monday.

They said Israeli troops shot and killed Ehab Meswadi, 21, after he allegedly stabbed and injured an Israeli soldier.

Al-Quds said Israeli authorities Monday handed notices of demolition for Palestinian-owned homes and commercial stores in Jerusalem and Qalqilia.

Al-Hayat al-Jadida and al-Ayyam said Israeli army notified owners of three homes in the West Bank of its intent to demolish them.

The two dailies said Israeli forces ordered the construction work on 18 residential structures in Qailqilia district to stop.

Al-Quds said Israeli settlers razed an agricultural land in the village of Bruqin near Salfit in the West Bank.

It said an Israeli court sentenced Khalida Jarrar, a member of the Palestinian parliament, to 15 months in prison.

Al-Ayyam featured a report which said that in many recent occasions, Israeli soldiers at checkpoints scattered across the West Bank, placed knives “surreptitiously” into Palestinian vehicles passing through checkpoints to justify use of live fire against them.

Al-Quds and al-Hayat al-Jadida quoted a report by Haaretz, an Israeli daily, which said that US-based business men and NGOs have been subsidizing illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories with millions of dollars.

Al-Quds and al-Ayyam said Israeli security sources expressed fear that an Islamic State-led attack on Israel is just a “matter of time”.
