Radical Palestinians have demolished synagogues left in the Gaza Strip, following Israel completed its last withdrawal from the coastal area on Sunday. As bulldozers started demolishing the synagogue in the Nitsarim settlement in the eastern Gaza city, hundreds of Palestinians climbed to the roof of the synagogue and raised Palestinian flags, calling "God is great." After that, they set fire to the synagogue. The buildings of 25 former Jewish temples were left intact by the Israeli army.
