The Beit Rima raid took place on 24 October 2001 when Israeli Defence Forces swept into the West Bank village of Beit Rima with tanks and attack helicopters in a search for militants that resulted in the deaths of at least 6 people and the serious injury of dozens of others. The stated purpose of the raid was to capture those responsible for the death of a Rehavam Ze'evi, a cabinet minister assassinated by the People's Front for the Liberation of Palestine, though it is unclear if any of those involved were present. It was the first major Israeli military raid into Palestinian-controlled territory, according to Human Rights Watch.

The Beit Rima raid was a 2001 Israeli military operation in the West Bank village of Beit Rima, killing at least six people while searching for those responsible for the assassination of Israeli cabinet minister Rehavam Ze'evi. Through the October 6, 2023 snapshot, the article's own title called it the Beit Rima massacre, describing the same tanks, helicopters and casualty count. Today the title and opening both read Beit Rima raid, and massacre is nowhere in the article. A reader today learns Israeli forces conducted a raid, not that Wikipedia's own title called it a massacre as recently as October 2023.
