He added that Israeli settlers left dirt and rocks mounds by the 4-meter wall surrounding his brother Mufid Abu Rmeileh's house. Abu Rmeileh added that the Israeli municipality sent an engineer to inspect and assess the damages done. The engineer acknowledged the possibility of other collapses due to the seriousness of the collapse and subsequently issued a decision to evacuate and immediately seal the house that sheltered his brother's 7-member family.
