"Israeli" firefighters battled several blazes around the occupied entity for the third day on Thursday as police said four Palestinians were detained in alleged connection with one of the large fires, which have damaged settlements and prompted the evacuation of thousands of people.

Spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said police are investigating all possible causes, including arson. Windy and hot weather have helped fan the flames. He said the four detained Palestinians will appear in court later in the day for possible involvement in one of the fires.

Meanwhile, flames reached the northern occupied city of Haifa on Thursday.
Several roads and schools were closed and dozens of residents were evacuated in some neighborhoods. Haifa Mayor Yonah Yahav told Channel 2 TV there are several points to the blaze in the city.

Yahav also said there are indications one of the fires was caused when "someone tossed a cigarette in an area full of oil and flammable fluids" in an industrial zone.
TV footage showed thick smoke billowing over settlements as high flames scorched trees and greenery nearby.

Police said the blazes started three days ago at the Neve Shalom occupation community near occupied al-Quds where Zionists live with Palestinian landowners.

Later, fires erupted in the northern Zionist area of Zichron Yaakov and elsewhere near occupied al-Quds. In all, hundreds of settlements have been damaged and thousands of occupiers have been evacuated. About a dozen were treated for smoke inhalation.
