Speaking in a closed forum to his soldiers, Etzion brigade commander, Colonel Yani Elaluf said that,  “We aren’t at the threshold of a third Initifada, based on the number of attacks in Judea and Samaria, we’re already in the third Initifada.”

He expressed optimism, that unlike the previous Initifada, this time the IDF is prepared to fight it properly.
