Israeli military wounds Palestinian driver near Hebron, does not detain him

The Israeli military said its soldiers fired on a vehicle they deemed suspicious near Kafr Dura on 25 October, seriously wounding the driver but not taking him into custody. The shooting came after a Hamas-linked attack near Hebron on 22 October injured five people. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded by ordering a full lockdown of Hebron and a travel ban across the West Bank.

Israeli forces then killed two men they said were Hamas-linked attackers, and the military described the earlier clash as a combat encounter. The operations displaced thousands of Palestinians and intensified ahead of national elections.

Résumé

The claim that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu imposed a full lockdown on the West Bank on October 23, 2026, following a military operation killing two Palestinians involved in a shooting near Hebron has insufficient evidence. The imposition of a closure on Hebron and restrictions on movement across the West Bank on October 23, 2026, by Netanyahu following a Hamas-linked shooting injuring five people is confirmed. The report that the Israeli military fired on a vehicle near Kafr Dura on October 25, 2026, wounding the driver lacks sufficient evidence. There is also insufficient evidence regarding whether the individual wounded near Kafr Dura was taken into custody by Israeli soldiers.
