Palestinians check a money changer in the Palestinian political capital Ramallah after it was raided by Israeli forces, blowing up a safe and sparking a fire, on April 14, 2016. An Israeli army spokeswoman said the pre-dawn raid was to "confiscate terror funds" held in the shop in the occupied West Bank. She said the money changer "failed to comply with the army instructions to open the safe," and so "the soldiers proceeded to a controlled detonation of the safe." The resulting fire spread to the nearby vegetable market before being extinguished, witnesses said. A spokesman for Palestinian prime minister Rami Hamdallah's office condemned what he said was Israel's violation of agreements. Photo by Shadi Hatem
