Civil Administration forces rescued three Israeli women who mistakenly entered Beit Jala near Bethlehem while trying to reach Rachel's Tomb. Separately, an Israeli man was extracted from Qalqilya after being caught using counterfeit money.


Civil Administration forces rescued three Israeli women who took a wrong turn on their way to Rachel’s Tomb and entered the ‘Palestinian’ town of Beit Jala, and separately extracted an Israeli man caught using counterfeit money in the center of Qalqilya.

Overnight, the Civil Administration received a report about three Israeli women spotted wandering in the ‘Palestinian’ village of Beit Jala in the Etzion Brigade area, putting themselves at risk.

Upon receiving the report, officers from the Etzion District Coordination and Liaison Office worked to provide immediate protection for the women and simultaneously transferred them to security forces through coordination channels. A preliminary investigation found that the women were on their way to Rachel’s Tomb and made a navigation error.

At the same time, the Ephraim District Coordination and Liaison Office received a report about an Israeli man detained by a Qalqilya resident after he paid for his purchase with counterfeit money at a store in the heart of the ‘Palestinian’ city.
