A 26-year-old Israeli tourist was arrested at Phuket airport after security discovered a magazine containing 29 rounds of military-grade ammunition in his suitcase. The ammunition, commonly used in rifles such as the M16 and M4, was confiscated and the man was questioned by authorities on suspicion of illegal possession. This incident is part of a recurring pattern, with several Israeli citizens previously detained in Thailand for carrying forgotten ammunition in their luggage. In these cases, tourists have faced fines or prosecution, even when claiming the items were left in their bags by mistake.
