Running From Flames
While it's uncertain how it started (officials are speculating it may have been triggered by an illegal garbage fire), Israel is struggling to control a mammoth fire near the northern city of Haifa that is being called one of the worst natural disasters in the country's history. At least 40 people are dead, dozens more are missing, and thousands have been evacuated. Above: An Israeli firefighter runs from the raging blaze in Beit Oren, Carmel Forest.
