The IDF raided the illegal West Bank outpost Gefen Ami and arrested two Israeli citizens after Jewish rioters from the outpost entered the Palestinian town of Beit Ummar and set fire to Palestinian-owned vehicles, Army Radio reported. Security forces confiscated about 10 pieces of work equipment, an excavator, and an all-terrain vehicle as part of what the military calls an 'economic campaign to address nationalist-motivated crime.' Shortly after the raid, United Hatzalah of Judea and Samaria (SSF) shared footage of a car on fire, claiming it was ignited by Arabs from Beit Ummar who had gone to the settler farm. It is unclear if the incidents are related. The story is developing.
