Channel 14 has released footage of the arrest and home search of Yossi Mosli, a Tel Aviv resident in his 40s, arrested by the Tel Aviv District Central Unit on suspicion of involvement in a series of grenade and shooting attacks on Japnika convenience store branches. The footage, published Wednesday, shows the moment of the arrest and the subsequent search. No injuries were reported in the attacks, but property damage was caused.
The Zioneer reported on Tuesday evening (Jul 14, 20:14 Jerusalem) that Mosli, described as a senior crime figure, had been arrested. Shortly after, at 20:14, the desk reported that a court extended his remand by five days, based on N12 crime reporter Yolan Cohen. A subsequent report at the same time from ynet confirmed that three other suspects were also ordered to remain in custody for five days. A later bulletin on Wednesday morning (11:40 Jerusalem) reiterated the extension. The footage now provides visual documentation of the arrest.
The attacks on Japnika branches have been ongoing. The Zioneer previously reported on a grenade thrown at a branch in Rosh Pina (Wed 07:21 Jerusalem), signs of gunfire at a branch in Herzliya (Tue 10:21), and a suspected arson attempt at a branch in Haifa (Wed 12:01). Additionally, exclusive footage showed a grenade thrown at the home of a senior Mosli crime family member (Tue 20:31). Police have not publicly linked the attacks to a specific criminal dispute, and the investigation is ongoing.
Police stated that the investigation is ongoing and that additional arrests are expected. The motive for the attacks remains under investigation.
