Israel to Deport 14 Foreign Activists for Anti-Israel Provocations
Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Fourteen foreign nationals and three Palestinians were detained in the Samaria region on Saturday evening following reports of disturbances. Israeli security forces, including the IDF and Border Police, responded to the incident. The foreign nationals are suspected of entering the area with the intent to provoke confrontations and promote anti-Israel media campaigns globally. Investigations revealed that some of the detainees support the BDS movement, which advocates for boycotting Israel, and express support for anti-Israel organizations, deeming them legitimate.

Following their investigation, in cooperation with the Foreign Ministry and the Population and Immigration Authority, evidence was gathered to support the suspicions against the 14 foreign nationals. Their case files were transferred to the Population and Immigration Authority for a hearing and a decision regarding their deportation from Israel. This action is part of a broader effort to thwart provocative activities in the West Bank.

The investigation into the remaining suspects is ongoing. The Israel Police stated their commitment to continuing efforts to prevent and thwart friction and violence, particularly during the olive harvest season, and to act against incitement and support for terror organizations that could lead to public disorder and harm Israel's image.
