While operating in Mea She’arim, a group of rioters began throwing stones and other objects at the officers, who were then arrested.

The indictment alleges that the operative offered the suspect money to photograph Jewish residential neighborhoods and locations used by police and security forces.

The accused, a mathematics lecturer in his 60s at Bar-Ilan University, was charged with preparing to commit an act of terrorism, extortion by threats, and obstruction of justice.

Police said extensive checks ruled out any security-related intent on the husband’s part and raised a “clear suspicion” that the woman’s warning about an impending attack was entirely false.

The celebration follows a similar event at the site in 2025, which angered the families of October 7 attack victims. As a result, the JNF and police banned such events in 2026.

Eliya Azrad faces charges of assault after throwing a salt shaker at Bennett, striking two of Bennett's staffers. Prosecutors requested that Azrad be kept under house arrest.

Magen David Adom said that the victim had been found conscious and given medical treatment at the scene before being taken to the hospital.

The graffiti included the words "Revenge," "Happy holiday from the happy Jews," and "Regards to Bluth," an apparent reference to Central Command chief Maj.-Gen. Avi Bluth.

Herzog told the community leaders that he would discuss the incidents with the Israel Police and stressed “the utmost importance of freedom of worship for all in the State of Israel.”

The device was found on an access road near Baal-Hazor in the West Bank over the weekend.
