The statue of Ben Gurion burnt on the beach of Tel Aviv // The use is made in accordance with section 27A of the Copyright Law
The iconic statue located between Frishman Beach and Bograshov Beach, and let's see Ben-Gurion standing on his head. The arson of the statue apparently occurred around 04:40 a.m., when a fire crew was dispatched to the scene and brought the fire under control. Police said they are aware of the incident and its circumstances are being investigated.
It is very sad that at the beginning of the new year someone decided to damage one of the most beloved statues in the city, the statue of the symbol of the rebirth of Israel - David Ben-Gurion.
We will renew the statue as soon as possible so that it will stand again as quickly as possible and return to delight the residents of the city, especially the children. pic.twitter.com/Pmy6X4dtwI
