Palestine's coast guard makes its largest drug seizure

A coast guard patrol intercepted a vessel carrying nearly a ton of opium and hashish combined, valued at about £50,000. Haggai Ram calls it the largest drug seizure in Mandatory Palestine to that point. Enforcement concentrated on sea smuggling while hashish cafés and small users were largely left alone.[1]
