Story summary

As of October 25, 2026, Israeli forces have expelled over 2,200 Palestinians from their homes in Hebron and imposed a lockdown on the city as part of a broader military operation in response to an attack that killed two soldiers near Hebron on Friday morning. The military has conducted hundreds of raids and arrested at least 40 Palestinians it claims are affiliated with Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad. The Israeli government, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, ordered security forces to close the city immediately after the shooting and prepare for a full West Bank closure starting Friday. At least five people were injured in the attack, including two critically; the attackers were armed with an M16 rifle and a handgun. Palestinians have been barred from entering or leaving Hebron since the incident, severely disrupting daily life.
