Thirty-three Chinese nationals were detained at the Allenby Bridge border crossing while attempting to enter Israel using counterfeit Japanese passports. The group, consisting of 27 men and six women, raised suspicions among Population and Immigration Authority officers conducting passport control. The documents were sent for examination, which confirmed they were forgeries. Investigations revealed that the individuals had entered Jordan using their genuine passports but switched to the fake ones for their intended entry into Israel, likely seeking employment. The Ministry of Interior stated that the fake passports were "very convincingly" fabricated, requiring a thorough examination to detect the deception. Consequently, the Chinese nationals were denied entry into Israel, their forged documents were confiscated, and an investigation is ongoing.
