Bat Yam 'meteor' is manmade object, geologists say
Geological Survey of Israel in Jerusalem made an official and unequivocal announcement that the unidentified object that landed at the Bat Yam beach on Saturday was not a meteor, but a man-made object.
"It is definitely not a meteor and not a different natural substance – somebody created it," said Dr. Ittai Gavrieli. According to Gavrieli, "the object has high concentration of phosphorus, which is naturally ignited when it comes in contact with air, along with an inflammatory material; but it certainly did not come from outer-space."
