Haifa Haifa

As many of you may have read, the north of Israel has suffered from a serious forest fire, the likes of which have never before been seen in Israel.

The devastation is wide reaching and the loss of these precious forests will be felt for generations to come.

The fires that broke out suddenly in the Galilee spread rapidly and have destroyed 20% of the trees in the national forest.

Haifa, the largest city in the north, is a beautifully green area that slopes gently down into the Mediterranean. Many songs have been composed and sung in its honor, including this song sung by the Israeli Army Band.
