  "account": "On August 19, authorities at the Tanjung Pelepas port in Johor seized three containers bound for Israel, Bloomberg reported. The containers contained electric bike parts shipped from a Chinese manufacturer. The seizure came after a container from the Philippines, suspected by Malaysian authorities of containing weapons due to its intended recipient - the Israeli defence technology firm Elbit Systems Ltd., was detained on August 7. The Malaysian Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS) is still investigating the contents of these containers. Malaysia does not maintain diplomatic relations with Israel, and the country's Strategic Trade Act 2010 regulates the export of sensitive technology and materials to combat terrorism, nuclear proliferation, and the spread of weapons of mass destruction.",
