Israel says a Minerva Marine aframax was not responsible for a serious oil spill that has polluted its beaches.
The country's state broadcaster Kan had named the 104,000-dwt Minerva Helen (built 2004) as a potential suspect in the incident that took place early in February.
But the government issued a statement on Sunday saying that a team of investigators led by the Ministry of Environmental Protection (MoEP) had cleared the tanker.
