Despite end of lease, IDF says it’s still guarding farmers in Jordan enclave
The Israel Defense Forces says it’s continuing to provide security to farmers at the Tzofar enclave on the Jordan border, despite the expiration of the lease granting Israelis access to the land.
“In continuation of the deliberation on the diplomatic arrangements in the Tzofar enclave, security forces are protecting the area and working together with the community,” the IDF says in a statement.
“The farmers’ work at the enclave is continuing subject to agreements and coordination,” it adds, without elaborating.
