Bezalel Smotrich, the Minister in the Ministry of Defense, has ordered the demolition of numerous Arab structures built illegally near the site of a shooting attack that occurred near Hebron on the morning of the article's publication. Smotrich's office stated that the demolitions are scheduled to be completed before Saturday and are expected to commence within hours. Earlier, Smotrich posted on "X" (formerly Twitter) that a comprehensive military campaign in Judea and Samaria and the dismantling of the Palestinian Authority are unavoidable. He argued that clinging to a concept that could lead to a repeat of the October 7th attack is unsustainable.

Meanwhile, security forces are continuing their operations in the Hebron area, imposing a tight cordon and working to thwart "terrorist activities." The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are preparing to expand offensive operations, with additional military forces being deployed to the Judea Brigade to bolster security efforts in the region.
