2024-12-24
[IsraelTimes] Two suspects were arrested in November on suspicion of smuggling weapons across the border from Egypt via the Sinai Desert, Israel Police and the Shin Bet security agency announce in a statement.

The security forces name the suspects as Zaher Abu Rakeik, from the Bedouin town of Bir Hadaj in the Negev, and Imad Huashla, from nearby Qasr a-Sir, outside Dimona.

A joint Israel Police-Shin Bet operation found that Zaher and Emad were involved in smuggling eight pistols and cartridges across the border from Sinai on October 19 using a drone, according to the statement, among other incidents.

The two suspects were charged today, the statement adds.
