Israel at war. In the Central Command, they launched an operation aimed at enhancing the sense of defense, during which security infrastructures were established in settlements and in the Judea and Samaria roads, in parallel with the reinforcement of defense forces and combat capabilities.

In the operation named 'Guarding the Homeland,' the Engineering Corps forces of the Judea and Samaria Division, along with the Central Command's 7058th Heavy Mechanical Equipment Battalion, are conducting engineering work to strengthen the operational infrastructure in settlements and on roads in order to assist and enhance defense components.

As part of the operation, barriers were placed, and barbed wire was added around settlements, fortified positions were established to improve perimeter defense around the settlements, and various gates and barriers were installed at the entrances to settlements. Among other things, fortification and fencing works, changes in access routes, organization of traffic control, vegetation clearance, and the construction of elevated and fortified positions are carried out according to various defense needs.

Near the village of Azun, for example, engineering work was completed, including clearing spaces, setting up guard positions along the road, and constructing barriers to protect against stone-throwers near Highway 55. These actions are carried out in addition to the openly and covertly operating forces in the area to protect the local residents and deter terrorism.

This is in parallel to the ongoing reconstruction of the security fence surrounding the city of Qalqilya to prevent infiltrators from reaching the communities adjacent to the fence and the outskirts of the State of Israel, as well as the construction of a barrier and seam obstacle along the fence.

Furthermore, since the beginning of the conflict, control over movements along the routes has been maintained, based on implementing various types of checkpoints, both engineering ones and those carried out by inspecting soldiers to monitor movements throughout the sector.
