Killed and wounded in a shooting operation in the 'Kochav Yair' settlement and the death of the perpetrators

An Israeli settler was killed and four others were injured with varying degrees of severity, as a result of a shooting operation described by the occupation as a series, which occurred in four different locations within the 'Kochav Yair' settlement located within the Green Line. Field sources explained that the attack focused on the northeastern area of Qalqilya city and near the city of Tira in the Triangle region, causing widespread security confusion among the occupation forces.

The Israeli police announced that they are treating the incident as a 'national operation' and not a criminal one, noting that the perpetrators were able to move between several points within the settlement before they were targeted. Hebrew media sources later confirmed the death of two Palestinian youths by Israeli security forces, claiming they carried out the armed attack that shook the settlement's security.

According to what was reported by the Israeli Broadcasting Authority, one of the perpetrators is from the city of Tayibe within the Green Line, and was driving a vehicle with Israeli license plates to facilitate his movement. This development led to a major alert among the security agencies, which began extensive investigations into how the perpetrators arrived and carried out the operation in several scattered locations.

Following the attack, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu quickly held urgent security consultations with intelligence and military leaders to assess the situation. These meetings aim to discuss the repercussions of the security operation and potential escalatory steps in the Triangle region and the West Bank to confront the escalation of armed operations.

For its part, Israeli medical sources reported that five injured people were transferred to hospitals, two of whom were described as being in serious condition, while the injuries of the rest ranged from moderate to minor. The operation caused a state of panic among the settlers, which prompted the mayor of 'Kochav Yair' to issue strict instructions to residents not to leave their homes until the area was completely secured.

In the context of Israeli incitement, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir made extremist statements via the 'X' platform, calling for the execution of the perpetrators if they were arrested alive. Ben-Gvir said that 'Jewish blood is not spilled in vain,' stressing the need to enact laws that allow the hanging of anyone who carries out operations targeting Israelis, in a move that reflects the extent of anger and confusion within the right-wing government.

On the Palestinian side, the Islamic Resistance Movement 'Hamas' blessed the operation, describing it as a natural and legitimate response to the ongoing occupation crimes in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. The movement said in a press statement that this operation proves the failure of the Israeli security system to tame the Palestinian people or deter them from the option of resistance.

The movement affirmed that the policies of settlement, Judaization, and repeated incursions into Palestinian cities and Al-Aqsa Mosque will not bring security to the occupation, but will rather increase the pace of confrontation. Hamas called in its statement on the international community to curb the state terrorism practiced by the occupation and hold its leaders accountable for the massacres committed against civilians in all Palestinian territories.

This operation comes amid escalating security tension in the occupied territories, where Israeli warnings of an explosion of the situation within the Green Line and in the West Bank are increasing. Observers believe that the arrival of operations to the Triangle areas reflects a qualitative development in the resistance's ability to overcome security barriers and reach sensitive targets in the depth.

Jewish blood is not spilled in vain, and whoever kills a Jew will be hanged.
