Crude oil spill in southern Israel heavily damages nature preserve

An oil pipeline burst in southern Israel on Wednesday night close to the southernmost city of Eilat. Route 90 was shut down in the area and the nearby Wastelands of Evrona nature preserve reported heavy damage.

 

The leak was prevented from spreading into Jordan, however reports in Jordanian media described residents reporting strange smells and suffocation.
