Israeli military and Border Police forces concluded a large-scale counter-terrorism operation spanning 72 hours across eight villages and the city of Nablus. During the operation, forces destroyed the homes of two terrorists, eliminated 12 monuments inciting terrorism, apprehended eight wanted individuals, and seized various weapons. Specifically, on Wednesday morning, forces from the Samaria Brigade and the Yahalom unit operated in the village of Beita, demolishing the homes of terrorists Zacharia Muhammad Abd Daoud and Ibrahim Abd Al-Karim Abd Daoud. These two terrorists carried out three attacks using explosive devices in 2024 and 2025, with two of these attacks injuring security personnel. The demolition of these homes continues a policy of holding perpetrators of attacks accountable, similar to a recent demolition of a terrorist's home in the Gilad Farm attack.
In parallel operations, Duvdevan unit soldiers, guided by the Shin Bet, arrested a terrorist in the village of Yatzid who was involved in trading explosive devices and weapons and was planning to transfer them to a terror cell. In the same village, Yamas Judea and Samaria soldiers arrested another wanted individual engaged in manufacturing explosive devices and weapons, trading arms, and planning attacks against security forces. Overall, the extensive operation involved searching approximately 300 locations, arresting eight wanted individuals, and confiscating weapons including hunting rifles, a pistol, and ammunition. The security forces also destroyed 12 monuments associated with terrorists and inciting terrorism as part of an ongoing effort to combat terrorism incitement and the glorification of terrorists in the West Bank.
According to the IDF spokesperson, Israeli forces will continue to act proactively and offensively to thwart terrorism in the Judea and Samaria Division and hold terrorists and inciters accountable. This operation follows a series of recent offensive actions, including the arrest of dozens of wanted individuals and the seizure of a large weapons cache. The IDF's offensive policy in Samaria emphasizes the early thwarting of terror infrastructure, apprehending wanted individuals, and demolishing terrorists' homes to ensure resident safety and prevent future attacks.
