After over six hours of searches in the West Bank settlement of Beit Aryeh, following a suspected terrorist infiltration, the IDF has given residents the “all-clear.”

Residents are now permitted to leave their homes.

The IDF says it scanned the area for two suspects, but none were found.

“The incident has concluded, there is no fear of a security incident,” the IDF says.
