The Israeli military confirmed ongoing large-scale operations in Hebron and other areas of the occupied West Bank, stating that at least 40 people have been arrested and hundreds of searches conducted. A military statement said they entered 40 villages to carry out "offensive operations aimed at thwarting terrorism," conducting at least 400 searches and arresting 40 individuals. Those arrested are accused of "ties to Hamas," as well as incitement, "disturbing public order," and stone-throwing. The statement also noted that soldiers are still operating "extensively" in "dozens" of locations in Hebron and Halhul. Previously, thousands of Palestinians had been forcibly displaced from Hebron by Israeli forces, with their homes converted into military outposts.
