Israeli police arrested 14 foreign nationals and three residents of the Palestinian Authority on Saturday, November 7, near the village of Ras Karkur, west of Ramallah. The group is suspected of disturbing public order and disobeying security forces. IDF soldiers and Border Police officers were dispatched to the scene to detain the individuals, who were then taken to the Modi'in Illit police station for further investigation. Police stated that the foreign activists allegedly arrived in the area to provoke confrontations and use them for anti-Israel propaganda campaigns. During the investigation, it was discovered that some of the detainees support the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement and other organizations described by police as anti-Israel. Following interrogations, the cases of the 14 foreign nationals were transferred to the Population and Immigration Authority. They face hearings that could result in their deportation from Israel.
