An Israeli couple from Jerusalem, aged 34 and 41, along with their one-year-old son, were rescued by Palestinian police after mistakenly entering Area A on Thursday evening. The incident began around 8:25 PM when the Israeli man contacted emergency services to report they had entered Area A, which is under Palestinian security control, with tourists. A joint security operation was launched involving Israeli police, the IDF's Coordination and Liaison Administration (CLA), and the Palestinian Police. The family was located by Palestinian officers near a hotel in Bethlehem and subsequently handed over to Israeli forces, including officers from the Etzion station and CLA representatives. The family was reported to be unharmed. Following the rescue, the parents were taken to a police station for questioning on suspicion of entering a prohibited area. They were later released under restrictive conditions.
