Israeli military operations in Hebron have resulted in the displacement of over 200 families, according to local officials. The actions follow the killing of two Israeli soldiers by Palestinian gunmen, prompting Prime Minister Netanyahu to announce the demolition of homes in the area linked to the attackers.
The military has cordoned off the city, restricting movement for its 200,000 residents. Netanyahu indicated that the operation could displace up to 2,500 people, drawing criticism for the practice of collective punishment from rights groups.
