The location of the fuel tank complexes on Sderot al-Hamar and Shahran must be changed

🔹 In 2005 we held meetings with the municipality and the oil company and other stakeholders regarding 2 sets of fuel tanks on Artesh and Shadran boulevards.

These gas stations could be dangerous in the event of an earthquake, we were warned that in any case the location of these complexes should be changed, but unfortunately these 2 places have not been changed during these many years due to the high cost of transporting them.

🔹 The enemy targeted these 2 tanks in the third coercive war, considering that we predicted that the materials would flow into the tanks, all facilities were mobilized to shut down these two compounds.

It was expected that extinguishing these tanks would take longer, but both the oil company fire brigade and the Tehran fire brigade, the Red Crescent and all the other units did it.

We have now notified in writing that these two locations must be changed. These collections were established before the revolution when these parts were desert, in the following years the city expanded and the reservoirs were placed within the city limits.
