What remains of Abargil and Domerani? The new underworld map

A senior police official maps the changing landscape of Israeli organized crime: Jewish crime organizations have weakened and shrunk, while Arab crime organizations have grown stronger. The Mosly family remains an unusually powerful exception due to its wealth and overseas connections. The official explains that Jewish organizations are trying to maintain power through alliances with Arab organizations, but the interests are limited. "In the end, everyone falls," he concludes.

A senior police official maps the changes in the Israeli crime landscape over the past two decades. According to him, Jewish crime organizations, once dominated by figures such as Yitzhak Abargil, Ze'ev Rosenstein, and the Alperon family, have significantly weakened and shrunk. In contrast, crime organizations in Arab society have grown stronger, with more power, people, audacity, and operational capability. A notable exception is the Mosly family, which remains strong due to accumulated wealth and overseas connections. The official explains that Jewish organizations are trying to maintain power through alliances with Arab organizations, but the interests are limited, and no one will enter a world war between Arab organizations because of a Jewish organization. Regarding Abargil, the official explains that a person imprisoned far from Israel struggles to maintain power over time. "In the end, everyone falls," he concludes, but notes that this is a living, dynamic system that is constantly changing.
