Police reopen Route 90 after floods
The Israeli police confirmed the closure of part of Highway 90 up to the Dead Sea due to floods and heavy rain, before reopening it later after the dangers diminished. This decision came following an assessment of the situation in the southern region, where traffic was halted along the stretch from Mitzpe Shalem settlement through the Dead Sea hotel complex, due to the rainy weather and accumulated floods. Authorities urged drivers to exercise caution, adjust their speeds, and warned of the potential formation of sudden flash floods and rising water levels in areas adjacent to Wadi Araba, following record rainfall in the region. A total of 21 millimeters of rain fell within just one hour, a rare record not seen in over a hundred years. Rescue forces prepared and continued assessments to ensure the safety of citizens and to minimize the impact of road closures on daily life.
