Israel Seizes Combat Equipment Destined for Gaza - Shmulik Hadad
Customs officers at Ashdod Port, scanning a shipping container on Tuesday that had been sent from China to the Gaza Strip, found it to contain hundreds of combat support items including telescopic sights and infrared markers for long-range targets. "We are speaking of a quantity that could upgrade the fighting capability of a whole brigade in the Palestinian Authority security forces," customs officials said. The container was declared to contain sewing notions, hats, and clocks. (Ynet News)
