The Defense Ministry's Civil Administration for Judea and Samaria, the Israel Defense Forces and Border Guards removed two illegal gas stations near the Palestinian Authority villages of Muchmash and Hizme in the Binyamin region, just north of Jerusalem.
As part of the operation, diesel fuel tanks that were buried in the ground, pumps and a mobile fuel station were confiscated from the station in Hizme. The Civil Administration said there have been about 40 such operations this year.
