Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway reopens after massive fire put out

The main Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway reopens after being closed earlier today when a truck burst into flames.

The fire spread to fields alongside road and caused the evacuation of residents in nearby homes.

There are no injuries from the fire.

The closure while emergency crews put out the fire and removed the truck led to snarled traffic along one of the country’s busiest highways.
