A tank from the Yom Kippur war that was at the Tel Saki battlefield site in the Golan Heights was taken on Thursday to be displayed with a copy of Israel's declaration of Independence on it at a protest by "1973 Veterans Against the Judicial Reform," according to a report by Kan's Rubi Hamershlag.
According to the report, the tank was intended to join a procession of vehicles from the Benot Yaakov bridge to Degania. The police stopped the tank carrier carrying the tank near Kibbutz Gadot.
The search for the tank began when residents noticed that the tank had disappeared.
During the investigation, police and local authorities realized that the tank was taken without permission by the protest leaders, veterans of the 1973 war.
