For 5th straight day Gazans fly flaming kite into Israel, setting fire to field
A fire breaks out in an Israeli wheat field outside the Gaza Strip because of a kite bearing a container of flaming liquid, for the fifth time in as many days, according to the local fire department.
The kite apparently touched down in a field near the Israeli community of Kibbutz Be’eri, east of Gaza.
Firefighters are working to bring it under control, the fire department spokesperson says.
