- Israel’s military siege on Hebron has displaced 4,969 people in the occupied West Bank.
- Israel began the operation on Friday, October 23, after two Palestinians shot two Israeli soldiers in Hebron and injured three others.
Why it matters: For people in Hebron, the material consequence is concrete: 4,969 people were displaced by a military operation that began on October 23. The operation followed a shooting in which two Israeli soldiers were shot and three others injured, so the city’s documented costs include both military injuries and mass displacement.
