The Southern District Prosecutor's Office filed an indictment with the Be'er Sheva District Court against Muhannad Abu Yahya (25) from Rahat, a contractor employee working on infrastructure projects who operated at outposts in the 'Yellow' area of the Gaza Strip. According to the indictment, Abu Yahya transferred dozens of kilograms of drugs in the area and was caught on the Philadelphi Corridor. He was found in possession of approximately 40 kilograms of hashish and tens of thousands of Captagon pills weighing approximately 11 kilograms, and was arrested by YMAR investigators at the end of July on suspicion of drug trafficking and smuggling drugs into the Gaza Strip. The investigators also seized 98 new cell phones in his possession, but these were not included in the indictment.
