National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir said Friday morning that the approach used in Gaza's Beit Hanoun should apply to Judea and Samaria, demanding the IDF use airstrikes and D9 bulldozers to destroy homes of terrorists and their supporters.

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir on Friday morning called for the IDF to apply the same approach used in Gaza's Beit Hanoun to Judea and Samaria, demanding airstrikes and D9 bulldozers to destroy homes of terrorists and their supporters. The minister said he is heading to the limited cabinet meeting to make the demand, asserting that 'for every Jew murdered, the enemy must suffer loss of land and homes.' The statement marks a significant escalation in rhetoric regarding the West Bank, as the minister explicitly calls for military tactics previously reserved for Gaza. The cabinet meeting, scheduled for later Friday, is expected to discuss the situation.
