Israel investigates major smuggling ring moving goods into Gaza

Israeli authorities have charged 12 people, including soldiers, with running a large-scale smuggling operation that moved millions of dollars worth of goods into Gaza. The case is one of two major corruption investigations in Israel related to Gaza.

Separately, an expert says most tobacco smuggled into Israel ends up in Gaza, and Israeli officials are reportedly looking at ways to benefit economically from Gaza's reconstruction. The Netherlands' next government also says it will reduce arms deals with Israel, citing alleged war crimes in Gaza.
