The Israeli Police Spokesperson's Unit announced that 10 people were detained yesterday in the West Bank as part of Operation Olive Leaf on suspicion of involvement in extremist violence and other criminal offenses. The operation was carried out by Judea and Samaria District Command units with support from the Israel Security Agency, Border Police and the Israeli military.

The suspects were taken to the Judea and Samaria District Central Investigation Unit and police stations in the Samaria area for questioning. All suspects were brought before a court as part of the legal proceedings against them.

Separately from the operation, police reported that another suspect in his 20s, a resident of Samaria, was detained last night by Border Police units in the Jerusalem area based on intelligence information. The suspect was reportedly believed to have been involved in extremist violence and was brought before a court.
