Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has said that “[the village of] Funduq, Nablus and Jenin should look like Jabalia [in the Gaza strip], so that Kfar Saba does not become Kfar Aza, God forbid”, referring to a town in central Israel and a community near Gaza that was affected in the October 7, 2023 attacks, reports. He made the on X following a bus shooting attack earlier today that killed three people near the Palestinian village of Funduq in the occupied West Bank. Smotrich demanded Netanyahu should call an urgent cabinet meeting today “to discuss a change in perception and the true eradication of terrorism in Judea and Samaria [the occupied West Bank]”.
