Israeli police officers from the Shalem station discovered three West Bank residents working illegally at a construction site in the Wadi al-Joz neighborhood of East Jerusalem. The workers were found to be present and employed without proper entry or work permits. Following this discovery, the Jerusalem District Commander, Chief Superintendent Avshalom Peled, issued an administrative closure order for the site, shutting it down for 20 days.

The enforcement action is part of an ongoing police campaign targeting the employment of illegal workers, which authorities say poses a risk to public security. The police emphasized that this measure aims to curb unauthorized labor practices in the city and maintain law and order.
