Military Redirects Resources Amid Growing Extremism In West Bank
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have been forced to cancel and postpone the arrest of Palestinians suspected of terrorism as they divert resources to combat rising settler violence in the West Bank. According to a report by Army Radio, the IDF has responded to the Shin Bet’s request for arrests by stating it is ‘unable’ to apprehend all wanted suspects. This comes as Defense Minister Israel Katz announces plans to transfer civilian enforcement authority to the Israel Police, as reported by Unknown Source.
