Fire Service says blaze near Ramle brought under control
The Fire and Rescue Service has brought a renewed fire near Ramle under control, a spokesperson confirms to The Times of Israel.
The fire broke out earlier this afternoon, just east of the central city along Route 40.
Some residents of the city’s Gan Haqal neighborhood were evacuated due to the blazes and five firefighting crews were dispatched to the scene.
Earlier today in the Latrun area, on the outskirts of Jerusalem, firefighters managed to contain another renewed conflagration with the help of two planes.
