‘Israeli’ National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir called for the dismantling of the Palestinian Authority and the disarmament of its forces following the shooting attack near Hebron in the occupied West Bank.
In remarks responding to the incident, Ben-Gvir warned against what he described as the possibility of another October 7-style attack originating in the West Bank, urging the ‘Israeli’ government to take action before the situation escalates.
“We must not wait for another October 7 to come from the West Bank. The next conflict will erupt from there, and we must act before it is too late,” Ben-Gvir said.
Ben-Gvir called for the dismantling of the Palestinian Authority, the removal of its weapons, and what he described as the complete elimination of “terror infrastructure.”
His remarks followed a shooting attack near the settlement of Telem, in the Hebron area of the southern occupied West Bank.
According to reports, two of the six ‘Israelis’ wounded in the shooting later died. ‘Israeli’ forces subsequently killed two Palestinians suspected of carrying it out.
Ben-Gvir’s comments add to calls from hard-line figures within the ‘Israeli’ government for intensified action in the occupied West Bank and against the Palestinian Authority.
