Defense Minister Benny Gantz holds a snap assessment with military chief Aviv Kohavi, and the head of the Shin Bet security agency, Ronen Bar, following tonight’s shooting attack near the West Bank city of Hebron.

Gantz instructs officials to “formulate operational measures according to the situation,” his office says.

His office adds that Gantz vows security forces will capture those involved in the attack, and wishes the victims a full recovery.
