IDF evacuating military prison near Haifa
The IDF says the Military Police will evacuate its prison located at the foot of Mount Carmel, in light of the wildfire raging through nearby Haifa.
The prisoners — convicted soldiers — will be sent to alternative prisons or, in some cases, released altogether, according to an army statement.
