Police say they arrested a man on suspicion of breaking into a store in Tel Aviv that was temporarily closed due to damage from a missile attack from Iran during the recent war.

The 33-year-old resident of Rehovot was detained on suspicion of breaking into a cellphone store on Ben Yehuda Street.

Police say the man was arrested at the scene.

Cases of looting in the aftermath of rocket and missile attacks on Israel have been relatively rare.
