Police said the operation, involving searches in the Arab Israeli villages of Jadeidi-Makr and Abu Snan in the Western Galilee, yielded two handguns, a fragmentation grenade, rifle magazines, loose ammunition, dozens of vape cartridges whose contents are suspected as narcotics, and approximately 33,000 shekels (about $9,000) in cash. Two suspects were arrested, taken for questioning, and subsequently jailed following the completion of the interrogation. The seizure adds to a string of police raids in Arab communities aimed at curbing the proliferation of illegal weapons and drug-related crime. The Zioneer has previously covered similar police and security-force operations in Judea and Samaria and in Arab Israeli towns, including the seizure of rifles and ammunition in the Jordan Valley and a raid on a crime compound in Tuba-Zangariyye.
