Israeli police conducted a targeted enforcement operation in the Shuafat refugee camp, locating pirate fueling stations and collecting millions of shekels in outstanding debts, according to police spokesperson footage cited by reporter Inbar Twizer.
Israeli police carried out an enforcement operation in the Shuafat refugee camp in northern Jerusalem on Wednesday morning, according to police spokesperson footage cited by reporter Inbar Twizer. The operation focused on locating illegal fueling stations and collecting debts totaling millions of shekels.
The Shuafat camp, along with other refugee camps in Judea and Samaria, has seen repeated Israeli security operations in recent weeks. As The Zioneer reported last month, Border Police and IDF troops raided a store in Deir Abu Da'if, seizing 175 kg of illegal fertilizer suspected of being destined for bomb-making. In a separate operation earlier this year, IDF bulldozers demolished illegal structures in Shuafat. The current police raid adds an economic enforcement dimension to those ongoing security efforts.
No arrests were immediately reported, and the full scope of the debt collection is not yet detailed. The camp, which administratively falls under Jerusalem, has long been a focus of Israeli law enforcement for unlicensed economic activities and security concerns.
