Jerusalem, 11 November, 2026 (TPS-IL) — Israeli police and customs officials seized approximately 40 drones during a raid on a home in the northern village of Dvoriya, where a 30-year-old man is suspected of selling illegally smuggled drones.
The joint operation by police and Ben Gurion Airport Customs followed an undercover investigation into allegations that drones purchased from the suspect, or repaired and modified at a laboratory in his home, were being used for criminal purposes.
Among the seized equipment were drones with tactical capabilities and models incorporating dual-use technology that can enable explosives to be dropped from the air.
