IDF Says Forces Arrested Two Suspects Who Admitted Arson Near Burqa

IDF forces arrested two suspects near the Palestinian village of Burqa after responding to a reported arson fire on Friday, the military said. No one was injured. The IDF said both suspects admitted setting the fire after troops searched the area and detained them shortly afterward. The two were transferred to security forces for further investigation. The statement did not identify the suspects or specify what property was damaged, and the military said security forces would continue proactive counterterrorism operations across Judea and Samaria.
