Police say that charges will be filed against a man caught apparently looting homes that had been evacuated in the northern town of Kiryat Shmona.
Police say the 37-year-old resident of Kiryat Gat in southern Israel was arrested last week after being seen behaving suspiciously.
Police found in his possession jewelry, laptops and tablets.
One of the houses looted had been damaged in a rocket strike, police say.
