These are disturbing findings that require entering the farm and an individual inspection of the tanks to locate the source of the leaks. "



According to the 2004 report, the ministry's representatives did arrive at the tank farm in Kiryat Haim on Monday and inspected the disabled tank and found no defect or defect.

"Their whole purpose is to harm society and build a 'portfolio' for it ahead of the hearing."
