Israeli military, Shin Bet, and Border Police launched a major counter-terror operation in northern Samaria targeting five villages including Tubas, Tammun, Tayassir, Faraa refugee camp, and Aqaba, aiming to arrest suspects and dismantle terror networks after recent attacks.The governor of Tubas confirmed house raids and said forces turned homes into outposts and ordered families to leave, while the mayor of Tubas criticized the campaign as paralyzing movement and endangering civilians, especially vulnerable groups.The Israel Defense Forces, Shin Bet, and Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth stated the operation is separate from the ongoing campaign since January and emphasized no murder suspects are hiding, terror infrastructure is collapsing, and defensive efforts must be intensified after recent eliminations of Sultan al-Ghani and Abdel-Raouf Shtayeh.
