In an interview on Channel 14, Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan called the Palestinian Authority a "full-on terror group" and warned that many within it have never hidden their desire to carry out another October 7-style massacre, this time from Judea and Samaria into central Israel. He urged the state to "cut this off" and praised National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, Judea and Samaria District Police Commander Moshe Pinchi, and all the district's officers and fighters.
Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan issued a stark warning Monday morning in an interview on Channel 14, reacting to journalist Aliyah Aviv's expose of an unusual warning by the Judea and Samaria District Police commander about a potential October 7-style scenario emanating from the West Bank. Dagan stated that the Palestinian Authority is a "full-on terror group" and that many within it have never concealed their desire to carry out a second October 7 massacre, this time from Judea and Samaria into the cities of Gush Dan and the Sharon plain. He called on the state to "cut this off" and expressed support for National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, district police commander Moshe Pinchi, and all district officers and fighters. The remarks come amid heightened concern among Israeli security officials over the growing threat from armed groups in the West Bank, as The Zioneer previously reported in a June 21 bulletin featuring senior official Hillel Bitton Rosen warning that the West Bank is the next front.
