Israeli police arrested a Palestinian man in the Jordan Valley on Thursday after his military boots aroused suspicion, leading to the discovery of military equipment and a classified map of the Gaza envelope area in his home. The suspect, in his 20s, was detained during a joint operation by police and Border Police officers in the Al-Jiftlik area of the Jordan Valley. Officers noticed the man wearing military boots, which prompted them to stop him for questioning. The suspect claimed the boots belonged to his son and stated that additional military equipment was at his home. A subsequent search of his residence uncovered weapons and military gear, including an airsoft pistol, knives, other military equipment, and a secret classified map of the Gaza envelope. The man was arrested and taken for interrogation at the Beka'a station in the Judea and Samaria (Shai) district. Following the investigation, the suspect was jailed, and the inquiry is ongoing. Authorities are examining how he obtained the military equipment and the classified map. This arrest is part of a series of enforcement actions by police in the Shai district in recent days, including arrests in the north on suspicion of possessing military equipment and weapons.
