11 foreign and Palestinian activists detained in Hebron

Israeli forces detained eleven foreign and Palestinian activists in the Hebron area on suspicion of violating a closed military zone order and obstructing IDF soldiers. The activists were found in agricultural land where activity had not been coordinated and refused soldiers’ orders to leave the area. Searches of two foreign activists revealed social media posts glorifying terrorists and terror attacks, according to police. The Jerusalem Post reported that the IDF and Foreign Ministry initially denied the group had failed to coordinate their West Bank visit.
