The seized items included lathes and specialized tools for producing weaponry, improvised rifles, and ammunition, according to police spokesperson photos released Monday. A suspect was arrested at the scene; the investigation is ongoing.
This seizure follows a pattern of illicit arms workshops uncovered by Israeli police in Arab communities.
