Israel's central region is increasingly vulnerable to terror threats emanating from the West Bank, with ongoing arms smuggling, training, and attempted attacks. The proximity of these terror hubs to Israeli cities, coupled with the continued flow of weapons and escalating militant activity, raises serious questions about the nation's preparedness following the October 7th attacks. Security analyst Elia Aviv, in an interview, discussed the developing threat, the proximity to Route 6, and the security establishment's readiness.
