01 · THE DISPATCH

Israeli police confiscated drugs worth over NIS 10 million, including approximately 14 kg of cocaine, in an operation in central Israel on Monday, according to i24NEWS. Five suspects were arrested.

The seizure ranks among the larger drug busts reported in recent months. The haul is significantly larger than a separate raid last week in Hatzor HaGlilit that yielded cannabis and cocaine worth about NIS 1 million, and a prior uncovering of two drug labs in the Kiryat area where 151 kg of cannabis were seized. The Central District operation's precise location and the identities of the suspects have not been disclosed. Further details, including whether the drugs were destined for local distribution or smuggling, remain unconfirmed.
