Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePublic Security Minister Omer Barlev says three people who were at the Eitanim psychiatric hospital near Jerusalem are feared missing following the hospital’s evacuation due to the massive forest fire.
“I hope it is a miscount,” Barlev tells reporters at a command center in Shoresh.
