The people of Qabia and the aftermath of the demolition in the village.
On the night between October 14th and October 15th, the village of Budrus was bombarded. Some cells of "Unit 101" opened fire on the villages of Shuqba and Ni'lin. In Qabia, a small handful of National Guard troops were defeated, and the unit moved from house to house in a military operation in a civilian area. Bombs were thrown through openings, and gunfire was indiscriminately fired through open doors and windows. Those attempting to flee were shot at. Subsequently, parachutists blew up forty-five houses, the village mosque, and its reservoir. Approximately 67 citizens were killed, the majority of whom were women and children.
