Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu canceled his planned visit to Jerusalem's Mahane Yehuda market on Friday morning following a severe attack on Route 35. Netanyahu is currently holding a situation assessment regarding the incident. Security officials believe the terrorists, who arrived in a vehicle with an Israeli license plate, intended to carry out a major attack against civilians. This attack was thwarted by IDF Home Front Command soldiers from the Ari Battalion during their first operational deployment. Minister of National Security and Chairman of Otzma Yehudit, Itamar Ben-Gvir, reacted to the attack, stating, "The severe attack now is a bloody, difficult, and painful reminder of the price of the concept. We must not wait for October 7 in Judea and Samaria." He added, "The next confrontation will break out there, we must act before it is too late. We need to dismantle the Palestinian Authority, disarm it, and completely eliminate the terror infrastructure. The blood of our soldiers is not for nothing." The head of the Kiryat Arba-Hebron Council, Yisrael Bar-man, also commented on the attack, saying, "We pray and wish a full recovery to all the wounded in the severe attack on Route 35. We strengthen the IDF and the security forces." Bar-man further stated, "The answer to terror is settlement, settlement, settlement."
