IDF helps fire service, police fight wildfires in Jerusalem hills as towns evacuated, Jerusalem-Tel Aviv road closed; dozens suffer smoke inhalation, burns, but nobody seriously hurt
As darkness fell Wednesday evening, the Fire and Rescue Service’s Jerusalem District commander warned of long, critical hours ahead, as firefighters battled out-of-control forest fires raging on the outskirts of Jerusalem with no signs of slowing down.
The fires in the Jerusalem hills area erupted on Wednesday morning, with the Fire and Rescue Service reporting blazes in at least five locations. The flames spread quickly, as a stifling heatwave and strong winds made it difficult to bring the blazes under control.
By Wednesday evening, the fire service said it had 163 firefighting teams on the ground and 12 firefighting planes battling the conflagrations surrounding Jerusalem at several key hotspots, including multiple places in Latrun, Neve Shalom and the Eshtaol Forest. There were also fires spreading in Mevo Horon, along Burma Road toward Beit Meir, Mesilat Zion, and near a gas station in Sha’ar Hagai.

The truth is coming out, slwly but surely. Arsonists? From what we see, learn
and read. it seem it's more sinister than that.
The desecration to the Land of Israel is beyond belief.
We're reading and watching some videos which are showing that these are not like natural fires. Seems the state has joined the rest of the ptbs, since we do not have Jewish leadership whatsoever. We pray for H's Protection for His people everywhere. Emunah v'Bitachon!
