Israel to widen police presence in occupied Quds

Israeli police announced on Tuesday a massive deployment in the occupied al-Quds (‘Jerusalem’), including the deployment of at least 1,200 new officers and the opening of six additional police stations.

Deputy Commissioner Yoram Halevy, who leads the police force, has led the drive.

The six new stations will be tasked to hinder anti-occupation efforts.

The stations will open in the neighborhoods of Issawiya, a-Tur, Beit Safafa, Jabel Mukaber and Sur Baher, according to Times of Israel.
