Three Israelis have been arrested after being accused of bribing Israeli air force personnel to sell them surplus equipment at a discount of millions of dollars.

The three suspects allegedly then sold the equipment abroad at its actual price.

After appearing in court last week, the three remained in custody.

Air force officers and Defense Ministry officials are being questioned in connection with the illegal sale of equipment.
