IDF pushing for Hebron attack to be classified as clash between soldiers, terrorists, not terror

The IDF is seeking to classify a recent incident in Hebron as an encounter between soldiers and terrorists, rather than a terrorist attack, in an effort to avoid criticism over the advance preparations of the Judea Regional Brigade. The military asserts that their response prevented a larger attack, but the investigation is ongoing to determine the involvement of the terrorist network. Several Palestinians have been arrested in connection with the incident, and the IDF continues to search for any terrorist infrastructure.
