The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched "Operation Roar of Judah" in the Hebron area on Friday, in response to a deadly terrorist attack involving perpetrators from the region. The operation involves soldiers from the Duvdevan, Maglan, Paratroopers, and Givati Reserve reconnaissance units, along with Border Police from Judea and Samaria, under the guidance of the Shin Bet and command of the Judea Brigade. During the operation, approximately 200 locations were searched, with no weapons or terror infrastructure found. Ten suspects were arrested.
According to IDF assessments, around 2,000 individuals belonging to the Jaba'a clan, identified with Hamas, reside in the area. This clan is believed to be where the terrorists who carried out the attack originated. Residents who wished to evacuate were temporarily allowed to leave the area through designated checkpoints operated by the IDF and Shin Bet.
Concurrently, at the northern entrance to Hebron, the site of the attack, IDF forces and the Civil Administration are continuing to demolish structures and infrastructure built in violation of the law. The IDF stated that the operation aims to enforce law and order and remove potential security risks.
