Israeli Security Forces Bust Network Smuggling Bomb-Making Materials to West Bank Terror Groups
A joint operation by the Israeli Border Police, IDF, Shin Bet, and Tax Authority uncovered a smuggling network supplying dual-use materials for bomb-making to terrorist organizations in the West Bank. Fourteen suspects were arrested, including an Israeli citizen and Palestinians, with approximately 175 kilograms of materials seized.

Authorities allege the materials were smuggled at a value of millions of shekels while evading tax payments.
