Defense Minister Yoav Gallant will hold a security assessment after a terror attack near the West Bank settlement of Eli killed four Israelis and wounded four, his office says.

Gallant “is being briefed on the details of the recent terror attack in the community of Eli, and receiving updates on the efforts to apprehend the attackers,” the statement says.

Gallant will hold an “operational situation assessment” with the IDF chief of staff and the head of the Shin Bet, along with other top security officials, his office says.
