Israeli forces continued searches, arrests and restrictions in Hebron on 24 October following the previous day’s attack that killed two soldiers. The Israeli military described targeted searches in the area linked to the gunmen. The United Nations had already expressed concern about widespread closures and escalating violence.

Assessment: The duration and extent of closures, humanitarian access and civilian mobility remain the principal indicators. The military’s description of its operations should be distinguished from independently observed effects on residents.
