Criminals stole an Israel Post delivery van containing 28 passports with updated U.S. visas last week, Channel 12 reported Sunday, adding that no suspects have been arrested yet.

The heist itself reportedly occurred last Tuesday in Netanya while the vehicle was currently heading toward Kfar Saba. The vehicle contained several other contents in addition to the passports and police are currently unsure if the theft was deliberately targeting the passports or if it was merely a coincidence and the robbers simply stole a vehicle not knowing what was inside.

However, according to the report, police have begun investigating and are set to update the Shin Bet on the subject due to the highly sensitive nature of the issue, since there is fear that the passports could end up in the hands of criminals or hostile entities.
