Fire broke out at a synagogue in the old part of Haniya. The fire broke out under the staircase of the building, which leads to the library. Firemen managed to control the fire before spreading and affecting the surrounding buildings. An investigation is held to establish the cause of the fire.
The library of the Jewish temple in Haniya holds more than 1 500 rare titles. Although the flames did not reach the valuable books it is very likely a lot of them have been destroyed by the huge amount of smoke and the water firefighters scattered about.
