Hebron District Governor Khaled Doudin: "There is no justification or reason for this [Israeli] escalation. The only reason is that this extremist [Israeli] government wants to drown the West Bank and wants to carry out the same plan that has been carried out in the Gaza Strip (the 2023 Gaza war). The goal is to uproot the Palestinian civilian from his land."
