The residents of Haifa woke up to a morning shrouded in smoke

(haipo) - Haifa residents who wake up at this time (Wednesday, 4/12/24, 06:45) smell the smell of heavy smoke in the air.
The reason for this is that this smoke comes from the significant fire that burned during the night in Carmel Park, near Isfaia and was extinguished by large forces of fire fighters.

Why is the smoke coming to Haifa now:

During the night a soft wind blew from the southeast. The wind drove the smoke from the Carmel Park to the city of Haifa. Although the fire has been extinguished, smoke is still in the air.
The wind is expected to change to the southwest only in the afternoon, so we may continue to smell the smoke in the air in the morning.

From Fire and Rescue it was delivered to Lai Pa:

This morning the city of Haifa woke up to the smell of smoke, at Moked 102 there were reports of a strong smell from all over the city and the city's fighters are scanning without findings for fire or smoke. In our estimation, the smell comes from the fire that broke out in the evening at the waste site in Usafia, and the firefighters of the Haifa station worked throughout the night, and continue to work even during these hours in the face of a huge amount of waste burning at the site.
It is important to clarify that the incident is under control and there is no danger of spreading.

  1. Really hiding like that just in the winter a fire broke out??
    Really fed up with the disregard for nature and living in Haifa and the surrounding area, we got a gem of a forest and because of stupid residents and a lack of leadership everything was destroyed
    disgusting

  2. How much nonsense are you spouting..! It's just like the great fire in Carmel in 2010, which started with a fire in the Usafia landfill. Here, too, someone set fire..don't know if on purpose, or not..fire doesn't break out by itself..senior journalist, you're a joke..!

    • Someone tried to recreate the Carmel disaster

  3. Thanks Naga
    This is the explanation for the burning smell in the morning in the Neve David area, we feared that it was a burnt car or apartment

  4. Even in Meshgav, Sakhnin, Araba, Karmiel and Deir Hana, the smells of burnt plastic have been rising for a week. Following the burning of trash in the Arabah

  5. Why do you state at the beginning of the article that the fire was "put out" when in the article itself fire and rescue report a huge amount of waste that is still burning and they are still fighting the fire? Clarification is needed as to the current situation.
