After intercepting 1.5 tons of treif meat from the PA (Palestinian Authority) heading to the center of the country this week, inspectors have also stopped the delivery of tens of thousands of eggs originating in PA areas.
Acting on a tip, inspectors stopped a shipment organized by a resident of the eastern capital, who was found with tens of thousands of eggs originating in PA areas. The eggs did not have any supervision from the Health or Agriculture Ministries. The person was placed under arrest, the eggs confiscated and destroyed.
They eggs were packed in cartons from the Tambor paint company when Ministry of Agriculture inspectors stopped the truck for inspection. Officials add the eggs were on their way for sale in the Israeli marketplace.
