The body of an old Russian T-34 tank was found in Holon during city construction work
T-34s were supplied by the USSR to all the Arab states surrounding Israel. Many were captured by the IDF when Israel was attacked in wars of 1956 & 1967.
Construction workers were conducting excavation work on Merkava Street in Holon’s industrial zone when, much to their surprise, they struck metal at 2 meters deep and discovered the hull of a World War II-era T-34 tank with its turret missing.
