The massive wildfires we asked you to pray for yesterday (Pray For Israel—Fires Are Raging – KCM Blog) continue to burn just outside of Jerusalem. The fires have resulted in the closing down of Route 1 (which is the main thoroughfare from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv), many families being evacuated from the area and the cancelation of the national Independence Day celebrations last night. Many nations have responded to aid in controlling the fires including Croatia, Greece and Cyprus. Prime Minister Netanyahu has announced arrests for suspected arson, with the assumed motivation being to disrupt Israel’s 77th birthday. For more on these stories and others, see below.
