Thousands of jellyfish arrived at the IEC's coastal power stations this weekend.
The giant filters at the entrance to the cooling systems of the production units worked overtime in filtering the water from the hazard and removing the jellyfish from the entrance.
Following the incident, in preparation for July, the Rotenberg power plant in Ashkelon is preparing to absorb and filter the hazard.
Indeed, the entry of jellyfish into the system could lead to a blockage and damage to the power generation system at the station.
And what if, God forbid, you were burned by a jellyfish?
First, the affected area should be thoroughly rinsed with seawater only (fresh water may cause an explosion of venom cells left on the skin).
If hunting arms remain on the skin they should be carefully removed.
Do not rub the sand infected skin.
Contrary to popular belief, the acidity of human urine is often insufficient to counteract the venom, that is, rinsing with seawater is preferable.
In extreme cases of symptoms such as vomiting, muscle cramps or difficulty breathing the hospital should be contacted as soon as possible.

Fixed!
