The operation to fight crime in eastern Jerusalem has continued in recent days, despite the tensions, at the behest of the Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir.

In the last four days of the operation, 52 individuals suspected of terrorist activities were arrested and 6 illegal weapons were seized. The police also enforced 180 traffic tickets in the neighborhood.

In addition, the police set up 224 checkpoints in the eastern neighborhoods of the city, checking 16,165 people and 12,482 vehicles. In addition, there were also 29 raids in which mobile homes were removed.

"We will continue our security policy which includes initiative and determination also in the return of governance to eastern Jerusalem," said Ben-Gvir.
