The Iranian shipment intended for Samaria contained heavy weaponry, such as powerful explosives, and was confiscated by Israel, reports JNS:

Israel’s security forces recently thwarted an attempt by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to smuggle heavy weaponry to Palestinian terrorist cells in the Samaria city of Jenin, the Israel Defense Forces and Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) said on Wednesday.

Israeli intelligence believes that the arms were sent by Unit 4000—the special operations division of the IRGC’s Intelligence Organization— and Unit 18840, the special operations unit of its Quds Force in Syria.
