According to i24NEWS, Palestinians began evacuating Hebron on October 25, amid fears of a Gaza-like scenario unfolding in the West Bank. This comes as Israel's election approaches, with The Times of Israel reporting that the operation was prompted by the killing of soldiers and that Prime Minister Katz vowed a 'big surprise' for the Palestinian Authority.

The situation in Hebron remains tense, with homes being converted into military posts and a lockdown in place. The operation's timing, ahead of the election, has raised concerns about its motivations and potential impact on the region.

The dispute over the number of displaced Palestinians adds to the complexity of the situation.
