Massive Boulder Collapses Access Road Near Dead Sea Amid Floods
Heavy downpours sweeping across southern Israel have triggered severe flooding, cutting off regional access routes. A massive boulder carried by rushing waters from the Zin Stream completely collapsed the main access road leading to the Dead Sea communities of Neot HaKikar and Ein Tamar, leaving them entirely sealed off. While the southern region deals with the aftermath of these intense weather events, sporadic rainfall and thunderstorms continue to affect northern and central parts of the country. Forecasters predict a noticeable cooling trend toward the end of the week, with temperatures dropping below seasonal averages.
