Seven Injured in Suspected Arson Fires at Three Locations in Ramat Gan

Early Friday morning, three fires broke out at close locations in Ramat Gan, Israel, including a palm tree and the lobbies of two residential buildings on Herzl and Jabotinsky Streets. Firefighters quickly responded, extinguishing the flames, conducting extensive searches to ensure no one was trapped, and ventilating the thick smoke that had accumulated. Seven residents were evacuated in mild condition to hospitals for treatment after inhaling smoke. A fire investigator who examined the scenes concluded there is a strong suspicion of deliberate arson and indicated a likely connection between the incidents. The findings have been forwarded to the Israel Police for further investigation.
