Oil wells burn off Sinai coast near Abu Rodeis fields
A fire at Israeli oil wells off the Sinai coast at Abu Rodeis was judged a technical accident with no injuries. Finance Ministry spokesman Dan Haftperin said the blaze, captured from Egypt in 1967, did not spread to other wells and no foreign firefighting aid was sought. The wells produce about 30 million barrels annually, about half of Israel's needs.
