Dozens of residents of Kiryat Arba and the Hebron hills came to the entrance of Arab village of Bani Na'im from where three recent terrorists have come, and were shocked to find that the "closure" of the village is nothing more than a pile of dirt that the Arab residents easily drive around and that there are no IDF operations in the area.​

The Kiryat Arba residens are demanding that the Israeli government enforce the closure on the village and expel the families of three terrorists responsible for recent attacks: a car ramming attack at the entrance to Kiryat Arba a few months ago, the murder of Hallel-Yaffa Ariel last week, and the attempted stabbing of a soldier at the Cave of the Patriarchs last Friday. They are calling for the deportation of any family connect to terrorism, and for enforcing strong measures against terrorism.

Meanwhile, last night IDF forces in the Hevron area arrested the sister of the terrorist who murdered Hallel-Yaffa Ariel last Thursday in Kiryat Arba.

The IDF said that the arrest was carried out this morning "as part of the ongoing activity against those who incite and encourage terrorists to carry out terror attacks."

This sister was filmed praising her brother after the attack in Kiryat Arba and cursing the Jews.

In addition, IDF forces arrested the night throughout Judea and Samaria eight wanted Palestinians suspected of terrorist activity and disturbances elementary. Those arrested have been transferred to the security forces for interrogation.
