Israel says it will be dispatching a team of firefighters to assist Brazil with combatting the fires that have consumed large swaths of the country's Amazon rainforest.
The Foreign Ministry said Tuesday that after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had discussed the matter with Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, the 11-member team would depart in the evening to assist Brazilian authorities with search-and-rescue and wildfire operations.
