Watch: COGAT thwarts attempt to smuggle cigarettes in pineapples...

The Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) successfully thwarted an attempt to smuggle thousands of cigarettes into the Gaza Strip concealed within pineapples. Following the incident, COGAT ordered the immediate suspension of the company's authorization to deliver aid to the region.

This operation highlights ongoing security challenges at the border with Gaza, where smuggling attempts are a recurring issue. COGAT's proactive measures aim to ensure that aid deliveries do not become a cover for illicit activities.
