Gazans arrested in a hideout apartment in Beersheba on October 20, 2023. (Israel Police)
Police say four residents of the Gaza Strip have been found and arrested in a hideout apartment in Beersheba.
Border Police officers acted upon intelligence indicating that Gazans are staying in Israel illegally, according to a police statement. They found and broke into an apartment and found the four Gazans.
They have been taken for questioning.
The police statement doesn’t say whether they are Gazans who were in Israel when the Israel-Hamas war began and became stuck, or if they participated in the mass infiltration on October 7 in which terrorists massacred some 1,400 people in Israel.
