Two Israeli Women Detained in Poland on Khat Smuggling Suspicion
Two Israeli women, aged 23 and 24, were arrested on Friday at Krakow airport in Poland on suspicion of smuggling 50 kilograms of khat in their suitcases. Khat is considered a drug in Poland.
The two remain in detention, and there is no expected release date reported. No further details were given about where they had come from, what police found beyond the khat, or whether charges have been filed.
The case highlights the legal risk for travelers carrying khat into countries where the plant is banned or treated as an illicit substance.
