Jordan Valley Raids Yield Gaza Envelope Map and Military Equipment
Security forces raided a Jordan Valley home, seizing a Gaza envelope map and military gear after noticing a suspect wearing military boots. Over 55 suspects were arrested across the West Bank.
Israeli security forces uncovered a clandestine map of the Gaza envelope and military manuals during a raid on a house in the Jordan Valley town of Jiftlik. Police and Border Police officers operating in the area noticed a young Palestinian wearing military boots, prompting an immediate investigation.
The suspect claimed the boots belonged to his son and stated that additional military gear was stored inside the residence. During the subsequent raid, officers seized knives, an airsoft pistol, extensive military equipment, instructional booklets, and a classified map detailing the Gaza envelope. The 20-year-old son was arrested and taken in for questioning ahead of a remand hearing.
Separately, the Israel Defense Forces announced that troops conducted dozens of counterterrorism operations across the West Bank, arresting more than 55 wanted individuals, including operatives from Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Concurrently, forces in the Etzion Regional Brigade demolished memorials glorifying terrorism dedicated to founders of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad following formal legal procedures.
