> Hundreds of families were displaced over the weekend during an Israeli military operation in the occupied West Bank city of Hebron. The operation followed a Friday shootout that killed two Israeli soldiers and two Palestinian gunmen. Benjamin Netanyahu ordered buildings demolished and the West Bank closed off. UN chief António Guterres and human rights commissioner Volker Türk condemned the actions, citing forced displacement and home demolitions.
