IDF Demolishes Terrorists' Homes in Hebron One Week After Deadly Attack

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) demolished the homes of two terrorists in Hebron on Sunday, just one week after they carried out a deadly attack at the Yehuda Junction. The demolition, which occurred in record time for such operations, followed a firefight in which the two terrorists were killed and three additional soldiers were wounded. The attack resulted in the deaths of Sergeant Major Ron Yonatan Reitman and Sergeant Yuval Shai Suilam.

IDF forces also destroyed three monuments belonging to terrorists associated with attacks and incitement to terror during a broader operation in the Hebron area. The operation, launched immediately after the Yehuda Junction attack, has focused on the city of Hebron and the neighborhood where the Al-Ja'aba clan, to which the two terrorists belonged, resides. This clan is considered supportive of Hamas, with its members linked to the terrorist organization's operatives.

According to IDF sources, terrorist operatives concealed significant amounts of weaponry and explosives outside the neighborhood's compounds shortly after the attack and before the military operation began, making it difficult for the IDF to locate arms at the scene. The military operation in Hebron continues under the directive of the political echelon.

The two demolished terrorists were 27-year-old residents of Hebron, each with two children. They are believed to have been members of a Hamas terror cell in Hebron and were reportedly carrying a large cache of weapons in their vehicle. The military estimates they were en route to carry out a larger attack in the region.
