WATCH: Police arrest 27 in massive anti-racketeering operation in southern Israel
The operation, dubbed Operation Courier Run, was jointly carried out by the Southern District Israel Police, Border Police, and the Lachish District Central Investigations Unit (YAMAR).
Israeli security forces conducted a massive anti-racketeering operation in southern Israel on Tuesday morning, arresting 27 suspects across Ashdod and Kiryat Gat. The undercover operation, named Operation Courier Run, targeted criminal networks that controlled delivery and distribution routes, forcing business owners to use their services for profit and money laundering.
The arrests were made by the Southern District Israel Police, Border Police, and Lachish District Central Investigations Unit. Additionally, on the same day, a 60-year-old Beersheba resident was arrested for allegedly transporting 11 Palestinians into Israel, while a 26-year-old Tel Aviv man was arrested for credit card fraud. Meanwhile, courts ordered Yossi Musli, head of the Musli crime family, into house arrest following a series of violent crimes.
