The IDF has sealed the home of the Palestinian terrorist who killed two Israelis in Friday's deadly terror attack near the village of Tell, as preparations continue for its demolition. The terrorist seized a rifle from an Israeli civilian security officer before opening fire, killing Master Sgt. (res.) Benayahu Mellet, 32, and Maj. Yuval Ezra, 27, before being shot dead. The military said the sealing is a temporary measure pending legal proceedings for the home's demolition. Separately, the IDF also sealed the home of another terrorist involved in the attack-the man accused of initially snatching the rifle— who was wounded during the terror attack and later captured by IDF commandos during a raid on a hospital in Nablus.
