In Beit Umar in the occupied West Bank, Israeli soldiers vandalised a Palestinian couple's car used to transport their 35-year-old disabled daughter.
The incident happened early Monday morning as the Sabarna family prepared for the Fajr prayer.
"I heard a commotion outside, loud beatings, when I stepped out of my home I saw Israeli soldiers smashing my jeep," 62-year-Muhammad Sabarna told The New Arab.
Beit Umar is a small town situated near al-Khalil (Hebron), south of the occupied West Bank.
When Sabarna asked the Israeli soldiers why they were smashing his car, one of them hit him in the back with a rifle.
"Shut your mouth and go inside," a soldier told Sabrana.
Sabarna told TNA that the soldiers left considerable damage to his vehicle, including broken front doors and front window, seats pulled, and the gear stick removed," Sabarna said.
"There were no clashes at the time," Sabarna said.
The Israeli daily paper Haaretz reported that the Israeli army claimed they were looking for a weapon hidden in the car, but none was found.
