September 26, 2021 "Israeli security forces operated overnight in Judea and Samaria (West Bank, ed) against Hamas terrorists who were about to carry out imminent terrorist attacks". This was stated by Naftali Bennett who left in the past few hours for the USA where he will speak, for the first time as the new premier, at the UN General Assembly in New York. "The soldiers and officers on the field - he added - have operated as we expected from them and all our support goes to them".



According to the same security forces cited by the media at least 4 Palestinians were killed in the firefights. The clashes took place in Burqin, Jenin, Qabatiya, Kafr Dan and KafrBidu, near Ramallah. The media does not rule out that they may follow rocket launches from the Strip.



In a statement released today, Hamas attacked the Palestinian National Authority (PNA), which rules the West Bank, and said the deaths are the result of its security cooperation with Israel and meetings between its authorities, including its own. president, Mahmoud Abbas, and Israeli officials.

Today's four deaths follow the death yesterday of a Palestinian protester in the northern West Bank during a protest against settlement construction.
