He was convicted, along with his cousin Nasir Asafra, of carrying out the murder of Dvir Sorek in August 2019 in Gush Etzion. Both of them blocked Sorek's path with their vehicle.

After the murder, the two fled the scene. 48 hours later, they were captured at their home in the village of Beit Kahil, about ten kilometers south of the scene of the attack. During their interrogation, they confessed to committing the murder. The military court sentenced him to life imprisonment plus 40 years for his part in the murder and a series of other security offenses. He is the brother of Ahmed Asafra, the terror cell commander.
