IN PICTURES / The evacuation of 'House of Contention' in Hebron
By Haaretz Service
Tags: settlers Hebron, Israel News 

Swiftly and without immediate warning, Israeli security forces on Thursday removed dozens of settlers from the site of a house in Hebron, to which the settlers claim ownership, but whose evacuation has been ordered by the Israeli High Court of Justice.

The evacuation itself was completed within about an hour, but irate settlers later rampaged through the West Bank city, some setting Palestinian property alight and opening fire on local residents.
