Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has reiterated calls for stricter movement restrictions on Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and the implementation of the death penalty for Palestinian detainees following a shooting attack that killed three Israeli police officers. He stated that Israelis' right to life prevails over the freedom of movement for Palestinians and demanded the reinstatement of military checkpoints. Ben-Gvir's comments come amid ongoing Israeli military operations that have resulted in significant Palestinian casualties and destruction of infrastructure, with at least 26 Palestinians reported killed in recent raids. He has also criticized Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for previously easing travel restrictions, attributing the attack to such measures. Ben-Gvir's proposals include advancing legislation for the death penalty for those involved in attacks against Israelis, which he argues is necessary for a strong response to Hamas. His remarks have drawn widespread condemnation and highlight the escalating tensions in the region amid the ongoing conflict.
