Second Israeli killed in Ethiopian Airlines crash identified as father of five-Shimon Re’em, 55, from the northern town of Zichron Yaakov, was a security analyst and former officer in the Shin Bet security service-By TOI staff and AP-MAR 14,19

The second of two Israelis killed in the Ethiopian Airlines crash near Addis Ababa on Sunday was identified Tuesday evening as Shimon Re’em, 55, a father of five from the coastal town of Zichron Ya’acov.Re’em, a 23-year retired veteran of Israel’s Shin Bet security service, was working for the Israeli security consulting company Shafran, the company said in statement on its website, mourning his death.On Monday the first Israeli victim was identified as Avraham Matsliah, a father of two from the West Bank settlement of Ma’ale Adumim. Matsliah, 49, left behind a wife and two twin daughters, who are both currently serving in the Israeli military.All 157 passengers and crew members of a Boeing 737 MAX airplane operated by Ethiopian Airlines were killed shortly after the Nairobi-bound flight took off from Addis Ababa.At least 35 nationalities were among the dead.Authorities are still working to sort through the wreckage and identify victims. The Israeli emergency response group ZAKA sent a delegation late Sunday night “to locate and identify the Israeli victims, to collect their remains in keeping with Jewish law, and ensure a full Jewish burial,” the group said.The head of the Zichron Yaacov Regional Authority Ziv Deshe told the Ynet news site that local social workers were with Re’em’s wife and family, who had requested privacy from the media and the public.“It’s a real tragedy,” his cousin Noam Haroush told Ynet. “Shimon was a wonderful person, energetic and dedicated to his work and his family.”Channel 13 news reported that Re’em had previously been in charge of security at two Israeli embassies in South America and had also later worked as a head of regional security for Israel’s El Al airlines.The announcement came as Britain, France and Germany on Tuesday joined a rapidly growing number of countries grounding a new Boeing plane involved in the Ethiopian Airlines disaster or turning it back from their airspace Tuesday, but there was no word on whether Israel would follow suit.The Israeli Airports Authority did not immediately respond to a request to comment on whether it was considering closing Israel’s airspace to the Boeing 737 Max 8.According to commercial flight tracker Flightradar24, a Boeing 737 Max 8 belonging to Czech airliner Smartwings was en route to Israel Tuesday evening from the Canary Islands.But many other planes around the world were grounded or forced to reroute as a global team of investigators began looking for parallels with a similar crash just five months ago.Neither of Israeli airliners El Al or Arkia list the model among the planes in their fleets.Pressure has grown on the United States to take action over the Boeing 737 Max 8 as Asian, Middle Eastern and then European nations and carriers gave in to concerns. Some cited customers frightened by the sight of Sunday’s crash in clear weather that killed all 157 people on board.The Ethiopian Airlines plane crashed six minutes after taking off for Nairobi.One witness told The Associated Press he saw smoke coming from the plane’s rear before it crashed in a rural field. “The plane rotated two times in the air, and it had some smoke coming from the back then, it hit the ground and exploded,” farmer Tamrat Abera said.It should take five days before any victims’ remains are identified, Ethiopian Airlines spokesman Asrat Begashaw told the AP.A pilot who saw the crash site minutes after the disaster told the AP the plane appeared to have “slid directly into the ground.”Capt. Solomon Gizaw was among the first people dispatched to find the crash site, which was discovered by Ethiopia’s air force.“There was nothing to see,” he said. “It looked like the earth had swallowed the aircraft. … We were surprised!” He said it explained why rescue officials quickly sent bulldozers to begin digging out large pieces of the plane.Ethiopian Airlines, widely seen as Africa’s best-managed airline, grounded its remaining four 737 Max 8s until further notice as “an extra safety precaution.” The carrier had been using five of the planes and was awaiting delivery of 25 more.On Tuesday a group of officials from China, which also grounded planes, paused in their work at the scene to reflect with an offering of incense, fruit, bread rolls, and a plastic container of the Ethiopian flatbread injera.As the global team searched for answers, a woman stood near the crash site, wailing.Kebebew Legess said she was the mother of a young Ethiopian Airlines crew member among the dead.“She would have been 25 years old but God would not allow her,” she wept. “My daughter, my little one.”

EU warns no-deal Brexit likely after Parliament shoots down May again-Europe ‘has done everything it can,’ says top negotiator after updated agreement rejected yet again by British lawmakers-By Damon Wake-TOI-14 March 2019

BRUSSELS, Belgium (AFP) — The British parliament’s rejection of the Brexit agreement makes crashing out of the EU without a deal much more likely, the bloc said Tuesday, as it warned there is no more it can do.Lawmakers inflicted another crushing defeat on beleaguered Prime Minister Theresa May, voting to reject the divorce deal, even after she secured further guarantees from Brussels.Senior EU officials lined up to voice regret at the result, and to hammer home the message that Brussels would not make any further concessions to help May win round recalcitrant MPs.If parliament fails to approve an accord the UK will crash out of the bloc without a deal on March 29 — unless a delay is agreed, something the EU said it would be willing to consider.A spokesman for Donald Tusk, the president of the European Council, said he regretted the result, but warned that from Brussels’ viewpoint “it is difficult to see what more we can do.”“With only 17 days left to 29 March, today’s vote has significantly increased the likelihood of a ‘no-deal’ Brexit,” the spokesman said.The EU’s chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier echoed the view, saying there was nothing more Brussels could do.“The EU has done everything it can to help get the Withdrawal Agreement over the line. The impasse can only be solved in the UK. Our ‘no-deal’ preparations are now more important than ever before,” Barnier tweeted.The message was repeated by a spokeswoman for European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker.“Given the additional assurances provided by the EU in December, January and yesterday, there is no more we can do. If there is a solution to the current impasse it has to be found in London,” the spokeswoman said.Shortly before the vote, Barnier voiced disquiet at the tenor of the debate in the House of Commons, warning MPs against the “dangerous illusion” that they could benefit from a transition period even without a proper divorce deal.“Listening to debate in @HouseofCommons: there seems to be a dangerous illusion that the UK can benefit from a transition in the absence of the WA,” Barnier tweeted, referring to the Withdrawal Agreement.“Let me be clear: the only legal basis for a transition is the WA. No withdrawal agreement means no transition.”-Reasoned request-Transitional arrangements to wind down Britain’s involvement with the EU form part of the agreement — but would need the British and European parliaments’ approvals to take effect.Some Brexit-supporting MPs argue that contingency measures announced by the EU that would come into effect in the event of no deal would effectively operate as a mini transition deal — a notion strongly rejected by Brussels officials.Attention will now turn to whether Britain will ask for a delay to Brexit — a question MPs will be asked to vote on in the coming days.“Should there be a UK reasoned request for an extension, the EU27 will stand ready to consider it and decide by unanimity,” Juncker’s spokeswoman said.An extension would need the backing of all 27 remaining EU countries.

British Parliament overwhelmingly rejects May’s Brexit deal-With just 17 days until it leaves the EU, the United Kingdom faces growing possibility of crashing out of the bloc without an agreement-By Alice Ritchie and Dmitry Zaks-TOI-14 March 2019

LONDON (AFP) — British MPs overwhelmingly rejected Prime Minister Theresa May’s Brexit deal for a second time on Tuesday, pitching Britain into the unknown just 17 days before it is due to split from the European Union.The House of Commons voted by 391 to 242 to reject the divorce deal, even after May secured further guarantees from Brussels over its most controversial elements.The move risks unleashing economic chaos, as Britain is scheduled to end ties with its biggest trade partner after 46 years on March 29, no matter what.Appealing to MPs in a voice half-breaking due to a cold, May had urged them to avoid the “economic shock” of leaving without an agreement.But she also warned euroskeptics, many of whom have campaigned to leave the EU for their whole careers, that if her deal failed, so might Brexit.May has promised to allow MPs to vote on a “no deal” option on Wednesday and if that is rejected, to decide on Thursday whether to ask the EU to delay Brexit.“If this vote is not passed tonight, if this deal is not passed, then Brexit could be lost,” she said before the vote.However, euroskeptics believe the deal is so bad it is worth the risk of leaving with no plan.“We must take what now seems to be the more difficult route but in the end the one that preserves our self-respect,” said former foreign minister Boris Johnson, a favorite to succeed May if she steps down.“It is to leave on March 29 as required by law and to become once again an independent country able to make our own choices.”Not a single change-After MPs first rejected the 585-page Brexit deal in January, May promised changes to the hated backstop plan which is intended to keep open the border with Ireland.Weeks of talks failed to make a breakthrough, but May made a last-minute trip to Strasbourg to meet EU leaders on the eve of the vote.She announced she had secured the promised “legally binding changes” to the backstop, which would keep Britain in the EU’s customs union if and until a new way was found to avoid frontier checks.But hours later, however, Attorney General Geoffrey Cox said the additions would not completely allay MPs fears of being trapped in the arrangement forever.It did not take long for Brexit-supporting MPs in May’s Conservative party, and her allies, Northern Ireland’s Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), to declare their opposition.Opposition Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn also urged parliament to vote down May’s plan.“After three months of running down the clock, the prime minister has, despite very extensive delays, achieved not a single change to the withdrawal agreement,” he said.Some euroskeptics changed their mind, however, urging their colleagues not to risk everything.Former minister Edward Leigh said: “You may not like the deal, it’s not perfect, but it delivers Brexit and let’s go for it.”The pound, which has been highly volatile since the 2016 referendum which saw Britons narrowly vote to leave the EU, made gains against the euro after May’s deal on Monday but fell sharply on Tuesday as it became increasingly clear the deal would be defeated.-‘No third chance’-The backstop is designed to protect the peace process in Northern Ireland, which involved the removal of border checks with EU member Ireland.Brexit supporters wanted a unilateral way out of it, or a time limit to the arrangement, but the EU said this would make it worthless.But leaders across Europe also united behind a message that this was the best and final offer Britain could expect.“There will be no third chance,” European Commission chief Jean-Claude Juncker said after his talks on Monday with May.If MPs vote against a “no deal” exit on Wednesday, and want to postpone Brexit, the other 27 EU nations would need to agree.Their leaders will meet in Brussels for a summit on March 21-22.But any postponement may have to be short-lived. Juncker on Monday said Brexit “should be complete before the European elections” at the end of May.

UAE minister slams Netanyahu for ‘repugnant’ nation-state comments-State minister for foreign affairs Anwar Gargash says PM’s claim that Israel is not a nation-state of all its citizens undermines peace-By Adam Rasgon-TOI-14 March 2019

A United Arab Emirates minister lashed out at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday for his comments last weekend in which he asserted Israel is not a nation-state of all of its citizens.The UAE is believed to be one of a number of Gulf countries which has slowly cultivated ties with Israel over the past several years. Both the UAE and Israel view Iran as a major threat.“Not only are PM Netanyahu’s comments that ‘Israel is not a state for all its citizens’ repugnant, but they provide vindication sought by extremists. The road to peace is further undermined by this shameful approach,” Anwar Gargash, the UAE’s minister of state for foreign affairs, tweeted.Netanyahu made the comment on Sunday in a social media argument with a popular reality TV host who had earlier decried Likud campaign rhetoric for suggesting Arabs participating in the government would not bode well for Israel.In the course of his spat with Rotem Sela, who is also a model and actress, Netanyahu stressed that Israel is “not a nation-state of all its citizens,” but rather “the nation-state of the Jewish people.”Sela had written on her Instagram: “What is the problem with the Arabs???…Dear god, there are also Arab citizens in this country. When the hell will someone in this government convey to the public that Israel is a state of all its citizens and that all people were created equal, and that even the Arabs and the Druze and the LGBTs and — shock — the leftists are human.”Netanyahu shot back on his own Instagram account: “Dear Rotem, an important correction: Israel is not a state of all its citizens,” he wrote, using a term which could also be used in Hebrew to denote a bi-national state. “According to the nation-state law we passed, Israel is the nation-state of the Jewish people — and not anyone else.”The controversial nation-state law passed in July 2018 enshrined Israel as “the national home of the Jewish people” but omitted a reference to the equality of all Israeli citizens akin to the one made in Israel’s Declaration of Independence.Turkey also denounced Netanyahu on Tuesday for his remark that Israel is not the nation-state of all of its citizens.“I strongly condemn this blatant racism and discrimination,” presidential spokesman Ibrahim Kalin wrote on his official Twitter account both in Turkish and English.“1.6 million Arabs/Muslims live in Israel. Will the Western governments react or keep silent under pressure again?” he asked.Turkey and Israel’s relations have long been tense, with Islamist Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who regards himself as a champion of the Palestinian cause, a vocal critic of Israeli policies.

Palestinian killed in West Bank clashes with Israeli troops-Army says dozens of Palestinians threw rocks at soldiers in Salfit during reported raids to take security camera footage-By AFP and Judah Ari Gross-TOI-14 March 2019

A Palestinian man died after being shot by Israeli forces during clashes Tuesday in the West Bank, medics and the Palestinian Authority health ministry said.The army said dozens of Palestinians rioted in the village of Salfit and threw rocks at Israeli troops, who responded with riot dispersal means.An army spokesperson said “there was no known use of live fire.”The Red Crescent emergency medical services said they evacuated a man wounded during the clashes.The health ministry pronounced his death and named him as Mohammed Shaheen, 23. According to the official Palestinian news outlet Wafa, he had been hit in the chest with a bullet.The clashes erupted as Israeli soldiers raided the village to take footage from surveillance cameras, according to Wafa.The fighting followed a series of other violent incidents in the West Bank and East Jerusalem on Tuesday.In Hebron, soldiers shot dead a Palestinian man who the Israel Defense Forces said tried to stab them.“IDF soldiers spotted the terrorist armed with a knife as he ran toward them. The soldiers pushed the terrorist back as he tried to run into a nearby civilian building. The soldiers shot the terrorist, thwarting the attack, and he was killed,” the army said.Later on Tuesday, Israeli police shuttered the Temple Mount holy site after a firebomb was thrown at officers, further adding to recent tensions at the flashpoint holy site.Israeli authorities said the site would reopen on Wednesday.Defense officials have warned that the coming months may see an escalation in violence in the already restive West Bank and Gaza Strip, in light of added pressure from the upcoming Israeli elections, US President Donald Trump’s plans to announce his proposal for an Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement, and ongoing struggles between the Palestinian Authority and Hamas.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Israel mum as growing number of countries bar Boeing plane in crash-No word on whether Israel plans to join European Union states and other countries in banning 737 Max 8 from its airspace-By TOI staff and AP-14 March 2019

Britain, France and Germany on Tuesday joined a rapidly growing number of countries grounding a new Boeing plane involved in the Ethiopian Airlines disaster or turning it back from their airspace Tuesday, but there was no word on whether Israel would follow suit.The Israeli Airports Authority did not immediately respond to a request to comment on whether it was considering closing Israel’s airspace to the Boeing 737 Max 8.According to commercial flight tracker Flightradar24, a Boeing 737 Max 8 belonging to Czech airliner Smartwings was en route to Israel Tuesday evening from the Canary Islands.But many other planes around the world were grounded or forced to reroute as a global team of investigators began looking for parallels with a similar crash just five months ago.Neither of Israeli airliners El Al or Arkia list the model among the planes in their fleets.Pressure has grown on the United States to take action over the Boeing 737 Max 8 as Asian, Middle Eastern and then European nations and carriers gave in to concerns. Some cited customers frightened by the sight of Sunday’s crash in clear weather that killed all 157 people on board.Israel was one of 35 countries to lose citizens aboard the flight. On Monday, authorities named Avraham Matsliah as one of the two Israelis killed when the flight slammed into the ground minutes after takeoff. The second Israeli has not been named.Ethiopian Airlines had issued no new updates on the crash as of the evening. Some insights into the disaster and its cause could take months, aviation experts said.In the wake of the latest crash, the European Aviation Safety Agency issued a directive on Tuesday grounding all Boeing 737 Max 8 and 9 model aircraft.The grounding applies to all European Union airspace.EASA said in its emergency airworthiness directive that “at this early stage” of the most recent investigation, “it cannot be excluded that similar causes may have contributed to both events.”It added that “based on all available information, EASA considers that further actions may be necessary to ensure the continued airworthiness of the two affected models.”It said companies may make one noncommercial flight to return their planes to a location where they can be inspected.Earlier, British regulators said they based their decision on the fact that “we do not currently have sufficient information from the flight data recorder we have.” An Ethiopian Airlines official has said one of the jetliner’s two flight recorders was partially damaged in the crash.Oman, Norwegian Air Shuttle and South Korean airline Eastar Jet were among the latest to halt use of the Boeing model. Malaysia, Australia and Singapore suspended all flights into or out of their countries.The US-based Boeing, however, says it has no reason to pull the popular aircraft from the skies. It does not intend to issue new recommendations about the aircraft to customers. Its technical team joined American, Israeli, United Arab Emirates, Kenyan and other aviation experts in the investigation led by Ethiopian authorities.The US’s Federal Aviation Administration said it expects Boeing will soon complete improvements to an automated anti-stall system suspected of contributing to the deadly crash of another new Boeing 737 Max 8 in October.Safety experts cautioned against drawing too many comparisons too soon with that Lion Air crash in Indonesia that killed 189 people.Even US President Donald Trump weighed in, tweeting that additional “complexity creates danger” in modern aircraft and hinders pilots from making “split second decisions” to ensure passengers’ safety.He did not specifically mention the crashes but said that “I don’t know about you, but I don’t want Albert Einstein to be my pilot.”The Ethiopian Airlines plane crashed six minutes after taking off for Nairobi.One witness told The Associated Press he saw smoke coming from the plane’s rear before it crashed in a rural field. “The plane rotated two times in the air, and it had some smoke coming from the back then, it hit the ground and exploded,” farmer Tamrat Abera said.It should take five days before any victims’ remains are identified, Ethiopian Airlines spokesman Asrat Begashaw told the AP.A pilot who saw the crash site minutes after the disaster told the AP the plane appeared to have “slid directly into the ground.”Capt. Solomon Gizaw was among the first people dispatched to find the crash site, which was discovered by Ethiopia’s air force.“There was nothing to see,” he said. “It looked like the earth had swallowed the aircraft. … We were surprised!” He said it explained why rescue officials quickly sent bulldozers to begin digging out large pieces of the plane.Ethiopian Airlines, widely seen as Africa’s best-managed airline, grounded its remaining four 737 Max 8s until further notice as “an extra safety precaution.” The carrier had been using five of the planes and was awaiting delivery of 25 more.On Tuesday a group of officials from China, which also grounded planes, paused in their work at the scene to reflect with an offering of incense, fruit, bread rolls, and a plastic container of the Ethiopian flatbread injera.As the global team searched for answers, a woman stood near the crash site, wailing.Kebebew Legess said she was the mother of a young Ethiopian Airlines crew member among the dead.“She would have been 25 years old but God would not allow her,” she wept. “My daughter, my little one.”

Top Catholic Cardinal Pell sentenced to six years in jail for choirboy abuse-77-year-old Australian is most senior member of clergy to be convicted of historical child sex abuse; judge slams ‘brazen’ attack and ‘grave’ abuse of power-By Erin HANDLEY-TOI-MAR 14,19

MELBOURNE, Australia (AFP) — Disgraced Australian Cardinal George Pell was on Wednesday sentenced to six years in prison for sexually abusing two choirboys, in what the judge lambasted as a “brazen” attack and “grave” abuse of power.Pell, who has maintained his innocence and plans to appeal, appeared in a Melbourne court after being convicted on five offences including oral rape and molestation of the boys in 1996-1997.The 77-year old — wearing a black shirt but without his usual white clerical collar — sat impassively, hands interlaced on his lap as Judge Peter Kidd graphically described his “breathtakingly arrogant” attacks.You “may not live to be released from prison” Kidd acknowledged, as he accused the former Vatican number three of “appalling offending” and a “brazen and forceful sexual attack on the two victims.”He was ordered to sign the sex offender register and stood as the judge set the minimum sentence Pell would have to serve at three years and eight months, due to Pell’s “otherwise blameless life.”The cardinal faced a maximum 50 years in prison for the five charges.Pell was found guilty of cornering the two boys, who were aged 13 at the time and on scholarships to the prestigious St Kevin’s College, in the sacristy after Sunday mass at St Patrick’s Cathedral in December 1996, when he was archbishop of Melbourne.The boys had “nicked off” from the rest of the choral procession and were taking swigs of sacramental wine before the cardinal found them, opened his robe, exposed his penis and sexually assaulted them.“There is an added layer of degradation and humiliation that each of your victims must have felt in knowing that their abuse had been witnessed by the other,” said Kidd.The judge added that the attack, and another two months later, in 1997, when he forced one of the boys up against the wall of a corridor and grabbed his genitals had a “profound impact” on the life of his victims.One of the victims died of an accidental heroin overdose in 2014 having never disclosed the abuse he suffered at the hands of Pell.“A small amount of justice has been done today. I don’t think six years is long enough,” said a victims’ advocate outside the court who gave her name as Rhonda.-Church not on trial-Pell is the most senior member of the clergy to be convicted of historical child sex abuse.Until recently he ran the Vatican’s finances and helped elect popes.With global attention on historic abuse within the Catholic church, Kidd however stressed that it was Pell rather than the Vatican that was on trial.He began the hearing, which was broadcast live, by stating that Pell was “entitled to the balanced and steady hand of justice” and lamenting “lynch mob mentality” among some of the public.“You are not to be made a scapegoat,” he said.Pell did not take the stand in his defense, but in a video of his police interview in Rome in 2016, he called the allegations against him “deranged falsehood” and “a load of absolute and disgraceful rubbish”.During a pre-sentencing hearing in February, Pell’s lawyers submitted 10 character references for the Cardinal – including from former Prime Minister John Howard and Australian National University vice chancellor Greg Craven.The lawyer told Judge Kidd that behind bars, Pell would be considered a “lightning rod” for the sins of the Catholic Church.Pell’s appeal has been slated for a hearing on June 5 and 6.His legal team is appealing on the grounds that the jury’s verdict was unreasonable, that Pell was not arraigned in the presence of the jury panel, and that the defense was prevented from showing the jury a visual presentation — described as similar to a “Pac Man” video game — depicting the movement of priests in the cathedral on the day of the choirboys’ abuse.Pell’s conviction — which has been criticized by prominent commentators and friends of the Cardinal — came about as a result of a retrial after the first jury was unable to reach a verdict in September.Media outlets were unable to report the guilty verdict until last month, when a suppression order was lifted after a second trial mounted against Pell — involving allegations stemming from a Ballarat swimming pool in the 1970s — was dropped.One complainant in that case, who alleged he was molested by Pell, has launched civil proceedings against him, as well as against the State of Victoria, the Sisters of Nazareth and Child and Family Services Ballarat.

Church official fumes after case against suspected monastery vandals dropped-Decision to not pursue prosecution of pair over anti-Christian graffiti on Dormition Abbey called ‘unacceptable’-By Agencies and TOI staff-14 March 2019

A Christian representative in Jerusalem has denounced the acquittal of two Jewish youths suspected of vandalizing a famous monastery.Wadie Abunassar, an adviser to church leaders in the Holy Land, said on Tuesday that an Israeli court’s decision to acquit those suspected of sprawling anti-Christian graffiti on the Dormition Abbey several years ago is “unacceptable.”He said the outcome is that those who carried out the attack weren’t “brought to justice” and Israeli authorities must find and punish them to deter others.Israeli prosecutors announced Monday that they would be dropping their case against the two Jewish far-right activists they had indicted on a series of crimes, including membership in a terror organization and vandalizing the monastery.The prosecution informed the Lod District Court that it did not have enough evidence to prosecute Yinon Reuveni, 23, and a second suspect, 21, whose name has been barred from publication as he was a minor at the time of the incidents for which he had been charged.In February 2015, officials at the Dormition Abbey found parts of the seminary burned along with Hebrew hate slogans graffitied on the walls. Messages included “death to Christians,” “death to Arabs,” and “Jesus is a monkey.”The Dormition Abbey, which is located next to the Cenacle — a compound that Jews revere as the site of King David’s Tomb, and Christians as the room of the Last Supper — outside the Old City’s Zion Gate, has been the site of numerous graffiti attacks over the last decade. In 2014, hours after Pope Francis celebrated mass at the Benedictine abbey, where Christians believe the Virgin Mary died, arsonists set fire to the compound, causing minor damage.It is a popular site for pilgrims and tourists.The attack came amid a spate of vandalism on Christian targets in recent years by suspected Jewish extremists and terrorists. It was widely condemned by Israeli leaders and others.Reuveni and the younger suspect were originally arrested in January 2016 as part of the Shin Bet’s broader crackdown against the “terrorist infrastructure” behind the deadly July 2015 firebombing of the Dawabsha family home in the Palestinian village of Duma.The minor whose confession was thrown out was arrested for the vandalism along with two other suspects: Reuveni, who has since been sentenced to five and a half years in jail for the July 2015 arson attack at the Church of the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fishes in northern Israel; and another unnamed minor who was indicted as an accomplice in the Duma terror attack in 2016.— Jacob Magid contributed to this report.
