27 stolen Israeli-owned cars recovered from Palestinian cities in West Bank

Police and Civil Administration officials announce the recovery of dozens of stolen Israeli vehicles from major Palestinian cities in the West Bank.

A total of 27 vehicles were returned to their owners today after being located in Nablus, Jenin, Ramallah, Jericho and Tulkarem, says the Civil Administration, which is responsible for managing civilian affairs in the West Bank.

The vehicles were transferred to Coordination and Liaison Administration officers via “coordination routes,” the agency adds, referring to Palestinian Authority forces. All vehicles underwent an examination by police bomb disposal experts before being handed back to their owners.

Among the vehicles recovered is a tractor stolen three years ago from a date palm grove in the Jordan Valley, police say. It was found in Jenin and returned to its owner earlier today.

According to the Civil Administration, more than 200 stolen vehicles have been recovered from Tulkarem alone, then handed over to Israeli authorities in the past year.
