A military court has sentenced Nadmi Abu-Bakr to life imprisonment for the murder of Sergeant Amit Ben Yigal. Abu-Bakr threw a 11-kilogram brick at Ben Yigal, who was serving in the IDF, killing him. The court also ordered Abu-Bakr to pay 4 million shekels in compensation to the victim's family. This sentencing marks the end of the legal proceedings in the case. The incident occurred during an operation in the West Bank.

Sergeant Ben Yigal was part of a force operating in the Palestinian village of Ya'abad, near Jenin, in May 2020. During the operation, Abu-Bakr hurled a large brick from a rooftop, striking Ben Yigal and causing fatal injuries. The legal process that followed included investigations, arrests, and ultimately the trial that concluded with this sentence.
