Israel's Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben-Gvir, reacted to a severe shooting attack in the West Bank on Friday, warning that Israel must not wait for a repeat of the October 7th massacre in the region. Ben-Gvir described the attack as a "bloody reminder of the price of the misconception" and urged immediate action to dismantle the Palestinian Authority and eliminate terror infrastructure.

Speaking after the incident near Hebron, where five people were injured, two critically, Ben-Gvir stated, "The severe attack now is a bloody, difficult, and painful reminder of the price of the misconception. We must not wait for October 7th in Judea and Samaria. The next confrontation will break out there, we must act before it is too late."

Ben-Gvir outlined his proposed measures, emphasizing the need to "dismantle the Palestinian Authority, disarm it, and completely eliminate terror infrastructure." He concluded his remarks with a firm message: "The blood of our soldiers is not forfeit."

The attack involved two terrorists who opened fire on civilians at the Yehuda junction before fleeing. They were later neutralized in a firefight with soldiers from the Paratroopers' 101st Battalion. Security forces are operating in the area, with a cordon placed on several villages and roads blocked.
