Police nabbed 102 Palestinians residing illegally in Israel during a nighttime raid on an apartment building in Tel Aviv’s Florentin neighborhood, law enforcement announces.

Officers from the Jaffa police station and Border Police forces arrested the property owners, two brothers aged 76 and 80, on suspicion of harboring illegal residents in several units within the building.

Blurry footage distributed by the police depicts security forces raiding apartments in the building, then leading dozens of detainees down the stairs before gathering them outside.

Police say that licensing inspectors and investigators at the Jaffa police station will “pursue both administrative and criminal measures against those responsible.”
