Israeli customs and northern district police have seized 40 smuggled drones from a residential property in the north, following a covert investigation. The drones, which possess various tactical capabilities, were potentially intended for delivering explosive materials.

The 30-year-old suspect has been transferred for questioning. The operation was conducted this morning as part of ongoing efforts to prevent weaponised drone smuggling into Israel.

The seizure represents a significant disruption to what authorities believe was an organised smuggling operation targeting security-sensitive equipment with potential military applications.
