Massive wildfires spreading across the outskirts of Jerusalem have forced evacuations and disrupted transportation routes, with Israel appealing to the international community for firefighting support. The Palestinian Authority has extended a rare offer of assistance, proposing to send firefighting crews to the affected areas. Israeli authorities have yet to officially respond, though similar offers have been accepted in past emergencies. Investigators are also looking into possible arson as a cause of the blaze.
