Jerusalem, 13 November, 2026 (TPS-IL) — Israeli police and Border Police forces arrested a suspect and seized weapons alongside a classified military map during a raid in al-Jiftlik, a Palestinian town in the central Jordan Valley.
Officers patrolling the Judea and Samaria District initially stopped the suspect—a local resident in his 20s—after noticing him wearing military boots. During questioning, the man claimed the boots belonged to his son and admitted to keeping additional military gear at his residence.
A subsequent search of the home uncovered a handgun, knives, and a classified Israeli military map of the Gaza border region in southern Israel.
The suspect was taken into custody at the Jordan Valley police station as authorities continue investigating how the sensitive map and weapons were obtained.
