EMERGENCY PROTEST HANDS OFF WEST BANK MONDAY 26TH OCTOBER 5PM

On the 23rd of October in Hebron, a shooting attack has triggered a severe escalation: two Palestinian gunmen opened fire near a checkpoint, killing two Israeli soldiers and wounding several others. Israeli forces killed the two attackers, and Prime Minister Netanyahu immediately ordered the immediate sealing of Hebron and preparations for a full closure of the entire West Bank.

Why it's happening: This attack occurred just before Israel's upcoming election, and Netanyahu seized the opportunity to declare a "large-scale offensive" to "destroy terrorist infrastructure," even stating he would "evacuate residents, conduct house-to-house searches, and destroy" the attackers' neighborhoods. He also publicly praised extremist settlers, vowing to accelerate settlement expansion. This incident is both a bloody eruption of long-simmering tensions in the West Bank and a move by Netanyahu to demonstrate a hardline stance on security before the election.
