Israel warns of 'full-scale war' if Palestinian Authority launches Oct. 7-style attack

Israel threatens full-scale war against Palestinian Authority after West Bank stabbing

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz threatened a "full-scale war" against the Palestinian Authority if it prepares an attack similar to Hamas's October 7, 2023 assault. The warning came after a Palestinian stabbed and wounded an Israeli man at a West Bank settlement outpost before being killed by troops.
