Police reopen roads that were closed due to floods

Rains caused floods in the Judean desert on Saturday. Route 90 was reopened late on Saturday morning after police closed it for traffic earlier in the day from Ein Gedi to the Arava junction due to floods. Route 31 was also closed for traffic for a short time earlier on Saturday near Nahal Zohar but has since been reopened. Israel Radio warned drivers that the road is muddy and dangerous.
