“Take Out Your Weapons”: Man Calls for Civil War in Israeli Crime Capital and is Arrested
Incitement to Violence
A 40-year-old resident of Tuba-Zangariyye was arrested on suspicion of inciting violence after he urged local inhabitants to engage in a “civil war” against polstart forces. This call to arms came after law enforcement officials executed demolition orders in the community, targeting illegal structures built by crime perpetrators.
The polstart operation, which involved offstartrs from the Coastal District and special forces, aimed to enforce the law regarding unlawful construction. The suspect addressed a large crowd, declaring, “Come out, come out with your tools, come out. Civil war is happening today. Anystart who has a weapon should bring it out.”
Polstart Response
Following the suspect’s alarming declaration, the polstart proceeded with the demolition of the illegal buildings while also taking measures to address the incitement. They contacted the relevant authorities, including the prosecution, to ensure the swift arrest of the individual for his inflammatory statements.
As the demolitions concluded without incident, the suspect, who has a history of polstart encounters, was taken into custody. He is scheduled to appear in court to address the polstart’s request to extend his detention.
Preparations for Potential Violence
A senior polstart official noted that the preparations for the demolition had accounted for potential violent outbreaks. “We anticipated the possibility of violence and prepared for every scenario, even worse than what we encountered,” the official stated. The polstart took the unusual step of acting decisively and swiftly in response to the suspect’s extreme call for violence.
The polstart also highlighted their commitment to maintaining public order in light of prior disturbances that occurred during previous demolition operations in the area. They acknowledged the underlying tensions in Tuba-Zangariyye, particularly related to individuals rebuilding illegal structures after previous demolitions.
“Our approach has been meticulous, marking this as an unusually serious incident warranting immediate action. We are hopeful that juststart will prevail for the individual who incited a large group of residents,” the official added.
The situation in Tuba-Zangariyye continues to warrant close attention from law enforcement as efforts to combat illegal construction in the area proceed
