IDF officials warned Sunday that visitors to Judea and Samaria should not rely on GPS (Global Positioning System) devices to find their way around the region. In the past, drivers have been misled by GPS, and some have even strayed into hostile Arab towns.

Israeli citizens are not allowed to enter Area A, the part of Judea and Samaria that is controlled by the Palestinian Authority, officials reminded visitors. In addition, visitors are advised to avoid “Area B,” where the IDF controls security while the PA has civil control.
