The IDF is preparing for expanded operations across the West Bank following the shooting near Tell earlier today, the military said. Leave for soldiers across the sector has been postponed and reinforcements have been brought in.
Troops apprehended nine wanted suspects overnight, questioned additional suspects and located weapons, according to the IDF. Over the past week, soldiers have apprehended more than 80 wanted suspects across the West Bank, including individuals accused of incitement to attacks, Hamas affiliates, and people involved in stone-throwing and firebomb attacks and in the manufacture and use of explosive devices, the military said.
Central Command chief Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth and Judea and Samaria Division commander Brig. Gen. Kobi Heller conducted a situational assessment at the scene, the IDF said.
