️🇮🇱🇵🇸 Defense Minister Israel Katz told the cabinet that the IDF received an order to prepare for a war scenario with the Palestinian Authority.

According to him, the attribution scenario to the West Bank establishes preparations for a possible attack by jihadist elements against settlers and soldiers, as a lesson from October 7.

Katz said that the IDF is preparing for a scenario in which the security forces of the PA and the Tanzim organization turn their guns on settlers and soldiers.

"In such a case, war will be declared against the Palestinian Authority and the IDF will launch a comprehensive attack in accordance with a detailed plan drawn up and approved by Prime Minister Netanyahu and myself," he said. According to him, such a campaign would be "short and powerful," including ground and air forces, the elimination and deportation of senior officials, the destruction of weapons and the large-scale evacuation of residents and the destruction of infrastructure in cities and refugee camps, in accordance with the models of Gaza and Lebanon.
