Israeli police are investigating a suspected attempt to steal a weapon and mutual assault near the settlement of Carmel in southern Hebron. Two individuals, an Israeli citizen and a foreign national in their 20s and 30s, were detained following a confrontation where two Israeli civilians were allegedly attacked. Both suspects were released under restrictive conditions, including a ban from the West Bank until January 2027, after questioning by the Judea and Samaria District's Central Unit. The investigation is examining claims of a weapons snatch attempt and reciprocal violence.

In a separate incident, 15 foreign nationals were arrested near a farm in the Loban a-Sharqiya area on suspicion of public order disturbances and violating a legal order. IDF forces apprehended the group, who were then handed over to police. The Modi'in Illit police station has opened an investigation into their involvement and the circumstances of the incident. Israeli security forces stated they will continue to act against those who disrupt public order and endanger public safety in the West Bank. Investigations into both incidents are ongoing.
