It is noteworthy that the run-over operation comes amid the ongoing military operation of the occupation in the cities of the northern West Bank, and the destruction of infrastructure by its forces and their targeting of resistance fighters.
It is noteworthy that in 2018, the Givat Asaf Junction witnessed a shooting operation carried out by Palestinians against an Israeli force, which led to the killing of two soldiers, which prompted the occupation army to strengthen security measures with surveillance cameras and snipers in the area.
