Two people were injured in a shooting attack Friday morning near the Yitzhar Junction, southeast of Hebron. The Magen David Adom (MDA) emergency service reported that one victim was unconscious and the other was in mild condition. IDF forces responded to the scene and neutralized the two attackers after a brief pursuit as they attempted to flee. Roadblocks were established in the area. Soldiers present during the attack fired at the assailants, who then fled and were subsequently killed near the location. A closure was imposed on several villages in the vicinity. MDA medics provided medical treatment to the two injured individuals at the scene. The IDF had raised its alert level twice in the past month, first around October 7 and again last weekend due to concerns of escalation ahead of elections.
