Police in northern Israel uncovered a significant cache of weapons and military equipment hidden in a cemetery in the village of Zarzir on Tuesday. Officers from the Northern District and Border Police (Magav) raided the cemetery, discovering a pit concealed underground that had been used to store the contraband. According to police, the find includes dozens of military-grade items originating from the army. Among the items seized were military explosive charges, several detonators, dozens of 40mm mortar rounds, a Mag-fed belt of ammunition, and 13 loaded M16 magazines. Police also found bottles containing 5.56mm bullets and a large quantity of 7.62mm ammunition.
This discovery follows a similar operation just two days prior in the village of Rama, where forces from the Northern District, National Guard, and Magav uncovered another weapons stash. Police stated that the Rama site was used by the Abu Latif crime organization and yielded 12 firearms, explosives, hand grenades, and drugs valued at millions of shekels. Both seizures are part of an ongoing police effort to combat crime organizations in the north that possess illegal weapons and ammunition stockpiles.
