Inondation rapportée par la presse : Eilat
« Heavy rains and flooding have hampered voting in southern Israel, the Times of Israel reports »
What's happening
Heavy rains and flooding in southern Israel on election day (Tuesday) blocked Route 90 and other roads leading to Eilat and the Arava, leaving residents stuck and unable to reach polling stations before they closed at 20:00. The Likud party petitioned the Central Elections Committee to extend voting hours, and the Committee said it would consider the request, while the Movement for Quality Government proposed voting at nearby accessible polling stations until 22:00.

Your description stays private — only the type and the area can appear, and only if other witnesses confirm.

- A third independent newsroom
- A witness on the ground to pin the exact area
