Netanyahu orders the "immediate" lockdown of the city of Hebron and anticipates a "total" lockdown of the West Bank
Middle East2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported22m ago
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the immediate closure of the city of Hebron and announced a total, indefinite closure of the West Bank effective this Friday. The directive follows a shooting attack near Hebron in which gunmen armed with an M16 rifle and a handgun opened fire on Israeli citizens. Israeli soldiers responded to the incident by killing two of the attackers.
The measures represent a significant escalation in security protocols within the occupied territory. By implementing both localized restrictions in Hebron and a broader closure of the West Bank, the Israeli government is responding to the recent violence with intensified movement controls across the region.
