Firefighters operated at Haifa Port following a report of a suspected hazardous materials incident at the site and identified a minor leak from an 'iso-tank' container belonging to the Dashanim company. Monitoring tests conducted in the field measured low and localized values only in the immediate vicinity of the container. Firefighters sealed the container by placing it in a containment area with the assistance of the facility crew, and it was later transferred by crane to the eastern pier for further treatment and inspection. Fire and Rescue Services stated there is no concern of a significant hazmat incident and the situation is fully under control.
