Wildfires prompt West Bank settlement evacuation
Large fires broke out in northern the West Bank, starting near the Kedumim settlement west of Nablus. The fires led to the evacuation of two residential areas before spreading to the nearby Havat Gilad outpost, prompting its residents to evacuate as well. Eight aircraft and helicopters participated in the firefighting efforts. Thirteen homes and a wood warehouse were destroyed. The fire injured at least two people with minor to moderate wounds. Several roads were closed, and emergency teams were deployed. An investigation is underway to determine the causes of the fires, which also affected other areas near settler communities and were brought under control by the evening. Israeli settlements in the West Bank are considered illegal under international law.
