Gathering between the makeshift houses, some danced while others held an outdoor prayer.

"Those who are strong in face of terror in Evyatar will be strong in face of terror in Tel Aviv. This is our statement here, we must be strong in face of terror both in Evyatar and in Tel Aviv," said Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir who attended the rally.

Israeli-Palestinian violence has surged this year, with frequent military raids in the occupied West Bank amid a spate of Palestinian attacks.

More than 90 Palestinians and at least 19 Israelis and foreigners have been killed since January.

Tensions have been especially high following Israeli police raids on Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa mosque compound last week, which triggered rocket attacks on Israel that were met with Israeli strikes in Gaza, south Lebanon and Syria.
