Israel's fire service says more than 150 teams are continuing to battle what are said to be the worst wildfires in the country's history.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared a national emergency when several blazes broke out on Wednesday outside Jerusalem. He said strong winds and dryness had created "a deadly combination”.
Several towns have been evacuated. However, main roads which were closed into the city have now been reopened to traffic.
Israel has requested international help, including firefighting planes, to help put out the remaining flames.
