Israeli occupation forces withdrew from the al-Jalda and Ein Der Bahia areas and other neighborhoods in Hebron on Monday morning, after a 10-day military operation and siege that included raids and attacks on homes and economic facilities, and forced dozens of families to leave their homes. Following the withdrawal, residents began returning to their homes, and life gradually returned to the city, with students resuming their attendance at schools and universities. Hebron Mayor Yousef al-Jabari said the municipality has begun assessing the damage caused by the aggression, noting that daily economic losses amounted to about 12 million shekels, with nearly 4,000 economic facilities damaged. He added that life is gradually returning to normal, affirming that all displaced families can return to their homes. The occupation army began its aggression on Hebron on October 23, following a shooting near the city that resulted in the killing of two Israeli soldiers and the injury of three others, and the death of the perpetrator. Since then, the occupation has imposed a closure on the city and its surroundings, tightened restrictions on movement, raided homes, evacuated dozens of them, and turned some into military barracks. According to Hebron municipality data, the number of displaced and affected people reached about 780 families.
