Century-Old British Ordnance Uncovered by Rain Detonated in Binyamin Region
What happened
Recent heavy rainfall exposed an unexploded British shell from around 100 years ago near a rehabilitation farm in the Binyamin region, which was safely neutralized by a police sapper in a controlled explosion.
How coverage differs
While all sources report the exact same incident, Maariv and Now14 refer to the munition as a missile ('טיל'), whereas Arutz 7 correctly identifies it as an artillery shell ('פגז'). Additionally, Maariv identifies the site as 'Yinon Farm', while Now14 and Arutz 7 refer to it by its formal name, 'Island of Quiet'.
