The government of Israel primarily responded to the Second Intifada by halting peace talks and reoccupying Palestinian areas. The Second Intifada, which began in September 2000, was marked by increased violence and conflict, leading the Israeli government to take military actions in Palestinian territories as a means of addressing security concerns.
