Israeli police and military forces are investigating a suspicious object found in an open area near the Talmon settlement in Samaria, to which a Hamas flag was attached. The site is being secured by police, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers, and Border Police sappers. Highway 463 has been closed in both directions between the Na'aleh settlement and the Ha'Doar junction as a precautionary measure.
Authorities are urging the public to stay clear of the area and follow instructions from personnel on site. This incident follows a similar discovery on September 27 in the Binyamin region, where a Hamas flag was also found attached to a suspicious item. That object was later determined to be a mock explosive device after a controlled detonation.
