"Galillee police were spread out over the area searching for suspects."

"In an unprecedented wave of international assistance, foreign fire fighters pour into country to help battle Carmel forest fire."

Hezbollah overjoyed by fire " "The great Carmel fire embarrassed Israel's firefighting capabilities and proved its almost complete incompetence," a report by Hezbollah's al-Manar network said. The Lebanese station said the poor performance came despite Israeli claims regarding the IDF Home Front's full readiness to cope with any emergency and face the implications of an all-out war.
