In the framework of their inspections of cargo destined for Gaza, Port of Ashdod customs personnel discovered the largest ever consignment – including thousands of items – of military clothing including vests for holding military equipment.

Also seized were thousands of pairs of special military boots and winter jackets in camouflage colors. The Gazan importer of the consignment, which originated in China, was due to receive it via the Kerem Shalom Crossing. All items were handed over to the security authorities.
