The Israel Defense Forces says it is further bolstering troops in the West Bank and seam zone area following the deadly attack in Bnei Brak this evening.

Four additional battalions are being deployed, after four were deployed on Sunday following the attack in Hadera.

The move comes after IDF Chief of Staff Aviv Kohavi held a situational assessment following the Bnei Brak attack.
