Israeli forces have uncovered an underground chamber approximately 15 meters deep near the home of a terrorist involved in a recent firefight at the Yehuda Junction. The discovery was made during "Operation Judah's Roar," a counter-terrorism operation in Hebron following the incident that resulted in the deaths of two Israeli soldiers and injuries to three others. The operation involved searches of over 500 locations in the city.

The chamber, measuring about 75 centimeters wide, has no exit and is located within Hebron, not near any Israeli settlements, according to the IDF. An electronic device found within the chamber has been transferred to security forces for investigation.

The discovery comes amid reports that Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir had requested the political echelon to conclude "Operation Judah's Roar," stating the IDF saw no further need for the operation. The operation began after the deadly clash on Friday, which claimed the lives of Sergeant Major Ron Yonatan Reitman and Sergeant Yuval Shai Suilam.
