43 motor buses were destroyed in the Tel Aviv garage last night in a big fire which broke out there under mysterious circumstances, as a result of which the entire communication of the town has been out off. The damage, which is covered by insurance, is estimated at about £20,000. The buses were all of the latest type and were built recently by the Hamaavar Company, which holds the Tel Aviv concession. Police headquarters are investigating the circumstances of the fire.
