'Unacceptable activity': IDF condemns Israelis taking over Palestinian homes, land in West Bank

The IDF on Tuesday condemned Israeli civilians for illegally taking over Palestinian homes and land in the Qusra and Jalud areas of the West Bank. The IDF declared a closed military zone for non-Palestinian residents in these areas, stating, “This is illegal, reprehensible, and unacceptable activity that harms the local residents and disrupts their daily lives.” The military also announced that any IDF personnel involved would face disciplinary action.

Additionally, the IDF reported an incident on Monday where Israeli civilians attempted to bypass a checkpoint in an ambulance to enter a Palestinian home within the closed zone. Soldiers discovered civilians hidden inside the ambulance, and Israeli police were called to investigate.
