The victim of the pollution in Nahal Gadora - a sea turtle.

For about a week, efforts have been ongoing to prevent the spread of pollution in Nahal Gadora, which, as I recall, was severely contaminated with used oil.

After the request of the Kishon River Authority and the Ministry of Environmental Protection, a contractor on behalf of the municipality of Kiryat Ata began the cleaning work, pumping and absorbing the oil from the stream.

During the cleaning operations documented by the supervision supervisor at the Kishon River Authority, Alon Ben Meir, the "victim of the pollution" was revealed - a sea turtle that was removed from the water and died after drowning in oil.

CEO of the Kishon River Authority, Sharon Nissim:

This is one of the hardest pictures I've come across. Even after a week, the criminals responsible for this human damage to nature and the environment have not yet been caught and I hope they will be prosecuted soon.

  1. Now the woman who poisoned cats and crows will sit in jail and hope that the judge will not give her a small punishment for her act. I think the husband will also rest from her or draw conclusions that she is capable of killing him too.. She is a danger to the public. Don't come with claims that crows are attacking. The people harass them and we don't know. That's why they react with suspicion and attack.

  2. Placing cameras along the stream, you can fasten them to the lighting poles around, will help in the future to prevent pollution from spilling oil into the stream, or old clothing, and other detergents. Catch and punish the polluters, whether private individuals or company drivers.
