Summary
A shooting attack occurred near Hebron on Friday, with Israeli forces stating two soldiers were killed and three injured, and that two gunmen were neutralized after approximately 20 minutes of exchange of fire. The Israeli military characterized the incident as a prevented terror attack. In response, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu ordered a large-scale military operation in Hebron involving IDF units, Shin Bet, and Border Police, with movement restrictions imposed on the city and neighboring settlements. Palestinian officials claimed Israeli forces demolished a residential area, displacing hundreds of families from the Ein Deir Baha neighborhood as collective punishment. However, Israel's Supreme Court denied that such demolitions occurred. Reports indicate approximately 250 families were evacuated from homes in the neighborhood where the attackers lived, with the operation expected to last several days. Videos showed substantial devastation with multiple city blocks where all homes appeared flattened. The operation sparked criticism from Palestinian representatives and human rights activists, who characterized it as collective punishment against residents uninvolved in the attack.
