During a search of the vehicle, officers found the highly toxic drug, with an estimated street value of three million shekels. The police stated that the vehicle was stopped after raising suspicion as it headed north on the main road.
Four foreign workers, aged between 30 and 40, were arrested at the scene. They were taken in for questioning as part of the ongoing investigation into the drug smuggling operation.
The bust is part of broader efforts by the police to combat drug trafficking in the region. The operation concluded with the seizure of the drugs and the arrest of the four individuals found in the vehicle.
