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. While some measures like establishing a blockade along the Gaza Strip were also implemented later, the immediate and defining response to the Second Intifada was the military reoccupation of certain areas and a significant pause in peace negotiations.
