Palestinian police allegedly beat, detain IDF reservist at unauthorized West Bank checkpoint
On Wednesday, the military officially amended its statement to clarify that the reservist was in Area C, not in Area B, and that the checkpoint in question was unlawful.
An IDF reservist was allegedly beaten and detained by Palestinian police at an unauthorized checkpoint in Area C of the West Bank on Sunday. Initially, the army stated Palestinian police aided an Israeli in danger in Area B, but later amended this, confirming the reservist was arrested in Area C and the checkpoint was unlawful. The reservist claimed Palestinian police used pepper spray, beat him, confiscated his weapon, glasses, and vehicle, and drove him for 20 minutes before he was handed over to the IDF. The IDF later returned his vehicle.
