Fires in Israel have spread to the forests east of Jenin and to the evacuated Homesh settlement south of the city in addition to Sabastia and Deir Sharaf towns in Nablus.
Fires have broken out all over Israel starting Tuesday and continuing until Thursday evening due to “dry winds.”
Palestinian civil defense forces said that they responded to fires which erupted east and south of Jenin saying that they have been dealing with the fires for long hours.
Local sources pointed out that the fires spread easily and very quickly in the area.
The wave of fires that has started in various areas in Israel since Tuesday continues to rage with new areas threatened by the blaze.
Israeli police evacuated on Thursday 60000 Israelis from 12 neighborhoods in Haifa within the Green Line due to the wave of massive fires.
