New signs aim to prevent Israelis from entering Jenin

Israeli authorities have arrested three individuals for allegedly transporting Palestinians who were suspected of illegally entering the country. The suspects were apprehended in separate incidents over the past week, with a total of 24 Palestinians and the accused individuals involved in each incident.

In the first incident, police from the Binyamin station intercepted an Israeli minibus traveling on Highway 1 towards central Israel. Upon searching the vehicle, authorities discovered 16 Palestinians from Tulkarm who were allegedly without the necessary permits to enter Israel. The driver, a man in his 40s from Kafr Aqab, was arrested along with the passengers. The minibus was seized by police for potential administrative proceedings.

A second operation on Highway 443 led to the arrest of a 40-year-old woman from Beersheba, who was suspected of transporting Palestinians who were allegedly in Israel illegally. Four individuals were found hiding inside her vehicle as she attempted to bring them into the country in violation of the law. The following day, police arrested another Beersheba woman, this time in her 30s, for the same offense, with four more Palestinians concealed inside her vehicle.

In both instances involving Highway 443, the vehicles allegedly used to transport the Palestinians were seized by police. Both women were arrested and brought before a court, which extended their detention.
