Police in northern Israel have uncovered a substantial cache of weapons and explosives, estimated to be worth millions of shekels, in an open area near the village of Rama in the Galilee. The discovery was made during a large-scale operation targeting the Abu Latif crime organization.
The raid, conducted on Monday by officers from the Northern District, Border Police (MAGAV) combatants, and National Guard personnel, resulted in the seizure of 12 firearms, including handguns, M16s, Kalashnikovs, and shotguns. Additionally, authorities confiscated explosive devices, hand grenades, dozens of magazines, hundreds of rounds of ammunition, and various weapon parts.
Investigators also found standard issue body armor, a "getaway" vehicle with forged license plates, and over three kilograms of suspected cocaine. Police estimate the street value of the seized items to be in the millions of shekels.
The operation involved dozens of officers and was part of an ongoing effort against targets associated with the Abu Latif organization. The specific location was identified based on intelligence suggesting it was used by the group to store weapons and equipment for their criminal activities.
