The tank was last seen near Elikim, a moshav northeast of Zichron Ya’acov. However, its point of discovery, a scrap yard near Nesher just south of Haifa, is around 20 kilometers away.
How did a tank get stolen from an IDF base and brought to a scrap yard?
The incident, which was first brought to the attention of law enforcement by the Defense Ministry, is currently being investigated by both police and the ministry.
The current motivations for stealing the tank, and then bringing it to a scrap yard 20 kilometers away, are unknown at this time. Two suspects from the North, one from Tiberias and one from Haifa, were later arrested for the theft.
This comes amid a rising wave of crime and violence in Israel, much of which is fueled by illegal weapons that were stolen from IDF bases.
This isn’t the first time a tank was stolen. Earlier this year, anti-judicial reform protesters stole a tank from a memorial site that had been used in the 1973 Yom Kippur War.
