An Israeli woman who reported being kidnapped was safely recovered earlier today from the city of Jericho in Judea and Samaria, according to the IDF.

Following the initial report, Israeli forces were immediately deployed to locate the woman.

At the same time, the Civil Administration, operating under the Defense Ministry’s COGAT framework, coordinated with Palestinian Authority security elements to determine her whereabouts.

PA security personnel reached the location first, secured the woman, and transferred her to Israeli forces.

The IDF confirmed that the extraction was completed without injuries or casualties.

Israeli authorities are now questioning the woman, including examining the circumstances surrounding her kidnapping claim.

Under Israeli law, civilians are prohibited from entering areas of Judea and Samaria that are under Palestinian Authority control.
