On the spot, military experts examined the body, which was found to be a huge naval mine, usually used to target ships and boats, carrying Hebrew writings.
The rarest finds were a naval mine of Russian origin, 132 years old, and a German mine with a wooden shell from the Second World War.
The others buried the concrete blocks in the sand, fastening them with the cables to rings on the mine itself, holding it steady until the arrival of the Naval Mine Disposal Squad.
