Recent heavy rains in the Benjamin Regional Council have led to the discovery of a surprising artifact: a bomb dating back to the British Mandate period. The unexploded ordnance was found near Farm Einon, a site that has become a resilience center for dozens of wounded IDF and security forces personnel. A bomb disposal expert was called to the scene and safely detonated the device in a controlled manner. The discovery highlights the historical layers present in the region, with the bomb's presence likely linked to the area's past.

Farm Einon serves as a sanctuary for wounded soldiers and security personnel, offering them open spaces, activities, and a respite from their daily challenges. The discovery of the historical ordnance near this center underscores the unique intersection of past and present in the area.
