Israel launches the largest operation in 60 years on the West Bank

Israel is preparing to launch the largest military operation on the West Bank since the 1967 "Six-Day War" and to forcibly displace the Palestinian population. One.uz reports this.

The Guardian reported this. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced plans to place entire neighborhoods in the cities of Hebron and Halhul under blockade and forcibly evict the population.

According to him, the army is preparing for the largest operation since the late 1960s. Reasons for escalation The situation near Hebron remains tense after two Israeli military personnel were killed.

Official bodies began large-scale destruction of Palestinian homes. Following complaints from local property owners, the Israeli Supreme Court issued a decision to temporarily halt demolition works.

However, as the destruction of houses without permits has affected thousands of people over the years, the new plan aims to completely empty entire population centers. Risk of repeating the 1967 tragedy Netanyahu compared the scale of the upcoming operation to the events of 1967.

At that time, more than 300,000 Palestinians were forced to leave their homes as a result of the war. International observers are expressing serious concern due to the possibility that the next actions could lead to a similar humanitarian crisis and involve an unprecedented scale of displacement.

The start date of the military operation has not yet been officially announced.
