Israel’s National Security Minister has called for a military operation in the West Bank similar to the ongoing campaign in Gaza, following clashes that left one Israeli dead and four Palestinians martyred. The minister’s remarks came after settlers stormed the village of Till in the occupied West Bank, sparking violent confrontations. ‘It’s time to do in the West Bank what we did in Gaza,’ the minister stated, drawing sharp condemnation from Palestinian officials and raising fears of a broader escalation. The incidents also resulted in several injuries on both sides. The call for a Gaza-style offensive marks a significant hardening of Israeli policy in the West Bank, where tensions have been rising. Palestinian authorities have urged international intervention to prevent further bloodshed.
