In a joint operation by officers from the Shalem station in the Jerusalem District and Border Police fighters, four minors from the A-Tor neighborhood were arrested yesterday (Saturday). The arrests came after focused operational and investigative work, following suspicions that the four were involved in throwing firebombs at Jewish homes in East Jerusalem.
The initial investigation shows the suspects’ actions were documented in real time. The visual documentation, along with rapid investigative work by forces on the ground, allowed investigators to skillfully trace the identities of those involved, locate them, and make the arrests.
The four suspects were brought to court yesterday, which granted the police request and ordered their detention extended until Wednesday, November 4, 2026. The investigation into the incident continues.
