CAIRO - 17 September 2024: Israel has acknowledged the theft of 18 containers filled with military equipment and weapons from an army camp near the Gaza border, according to a report by Channel 14, a media outlet close to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The report, released Monday evening, highlights a major security breach on Israel’s southern front.

Israeli security agencies are now investigating how military-grade weapons have leaked from the Israeli army into the hands of Palestinian factions in Gaza and the West Bank. This follows the shocking discovery that Palestinian groups in Gaza have accumulated a substantial arsenal of Israeli weapons, in addition to the homemade arms they have been manufacturing in underground tunnels over the years.
