IDF Foils Weapons Smuggling Attempt

Israeli military:

"Last night (Thursday), IDF surveillance identified indications of activity in preparation for a smuggling attempt in the eastern border area.

Following the findings, forces from the Jordan Valley and Foothills Brigade, officers from the Israel Police Jordan Border Unit of the Judea and Samaria District, and Border Police forces in Judea and Samaria operated jointly and established ambushes in the area.

During the operation, two residents of Jericho were arrested. More than 30 pistols and two M-16 rifles were seized.

The suspects and weapons were transferred for further investigation by the Judea and Samaria District Central Unit.

Security forces are deployed along the eastern border and continue to operate to thwart smuggling attempts and safeguard the security of the citizens of Israel."

A large cache of seized firearms laid out on a white surface, including approximately 30 handguns in tan and black colors, two AR-style rifles, several magazines, and two backpacks, consistent with a law enforcement evidence display.
