The orders were served in the wake of intelligence gathered by the Shin Bet, according to which a group of extremists have been involved in leading, planning and carrying out widespread secret, violent attacks against Palestinians in the West Bank over the last two years.

Attacks include arson attacks on a number of mosques, vehicles and buildings belonging to Palestinians, causing real danger to human life and disruption of the public order and security in the area.

GOC Central Command Avi Mizrahi, issued the twelve restraining orders for residents the Yitzhar settlement near Nablus in the West Bank. Ten of the orders are six months to one year in duration, and refer to the entire area of Judea and Samaria. The remaining two orders specify the area of Yitzhar.
