🚨 ISRAEL ANNOUNCES MAJOR RESPONSE TO DEADLY SAMARIA TERROR ATTACKS

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz have ordered the IDF to implement a series of measures following the terrorist attacks over the past day:

▪️ Demolish the terrorist’s home
▪️ Intensify operations in terror strongholds
▪️ Seize weapons and revoke work permits
▪️ Reinforce IDF forces across Judea and Samaria
▪️ Establish additional checkpoints and separate traffic routes
▪️ Accelerate the legalization of existing outposts and the establishment of new communities

Netanyahu and Katz expressed condolences to the family of Benyahu Melat, HY”D, wished the wounded a full recovery, and called on the public not to interfere with security operations.

“The security forces must be allowed to operate freely and with full force against terrorism.”

More from Netanyahu


Translated Text:

We will pursue terror everywhere. We will reach the terrorists, their dispatchers, and everyone who assists them—and we will settle accounts with them.

In the wake of the terrorist attacks over the past day, Defense Minister Israel Katz and I have instructed the IDF, following consultations with members of the security cabinet and heads of the security establishment, to take a series of forceful steps against terror:

To demolish the home of the terrorist who carried out this morning's attack near the village of Tel.

To act forcefully in villages that serve as terror hotspots, including collecting weapons and revoking work permits.

To bolster our forces throughout Judea and Samaria.

To separate traffic routes and set up checkpoints in accordance with security needs.

To accelerate the regularization of farms and the establishment of new ones.

From the depths of my heart, I send condolences to the Melt family, whose son was murdered this morning in the heinous attack.

I wish a full recovery to the wounded and strengthen the security forces and the settlers who stand courageously and resolutely against terror.

We will enable the security forces to operate freely and at full strength against the terrorists and their dispatchers.

I call on everyone to refrain from any action that could harm our forces' operations or divert them from their central mission: to protect Israel's citizens and defeat terror.

Israeli military is gearing up for reprisal attacks by settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank village of Tell

The Israeli military is gearing up for reprisal attacks by settlers against Palestinians following this morning's deadly clash in the West Bank village of Tell.

The IDF says it is deploying forces ahead of the funeral for Benayahu Mellet, 32, who was killed in the incident, to prevent "confrontations" between Israelis and Palestinians.

A military official warns that there has been an "atmosphere" of revenge since the deadly incident, and calls to enter Palestinian villages and carry out attacks. The official says the army's main goal for the coming hours is to maintain order in the area.
