Yagel was supposed to celebrate his 20th birthday two weeks after the attack. The brothers were from the Har Bracha settlement in Samaria and were laid to rest at the Mt. Herzl military cemetery.

One Palestinian was wounded in clashes as Israeli forces operated in Nablus. During the raid in Nablus, three Hamas terrorists were arrested by Israeli forces as well.

Overnight, the IDF and Shin Bet arrested 37 suspects in the West Bank, including 17 people affiliated with Hamas.
