According to police, photos of terrorists were hung and displayed throughout the school, alongside content encouraging terrorism. Among the items found were photos of Yasser Arafat, Yahya Sinwar, and others, as well as a map of Israel that allegedly marked “occupied territories” and photos of security forces.

During the overnight operation, forces raided the school, removed the incitement posters, and began operations to locate those involved. As part of the operation, the school principal—a woman in her 50s from al-Eizariya—was arrested on suspicion of involvement in displaying the content.
