Minister Yisrael Katz on Samaria Attack: ‘I wish a speedy recovery to the stabbing victim. The IDF will pursue and capture the terrorist.’
The Minister of Defense added that “our policy in Judea and Samaria is clear: to forcefully pursue Palestinian terrorism, develop and strengthen Jewish settlement, and maintain security stability. Terrorism in Judea and Samaria is currently at its lowest level in decades, and we will take all necessary steps to prevent terrorism from rearing its head again.”
Katz added and warned that, “In the event that the Palestinian Authority’s security mechanisms and their associated bodies turn on us and launch, or we know for certain they are about to launch, an October 7-style terror attack against IDF forces and Jewish settlement—Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and I have instructed the IDF to prepare to launch an all-out war against the senior officials and mechanisms of the Authority and their associated bodies, and against all terror infrastructure in Judea and Samaria, in order to swiftly bring about their complete defeat.”
