Firewave uses sound sensors to detect wildfires

The time is now 5:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, Iran’s Central Military Command (Khatam al-Anbiya) says there is a presence of Israeli fighter jets in the airspace of its neighboring countries and warns of the consequences. It describes the aircraft as belonging to the army of the terrorist Zionist entity in the airspace of several neighboring countries and their movement to Iran, as a dangerous act and a threat to the Islamic Republic of Iran. It adds that if the United States is unable to restrain the Zionist entity and control it, the Islamic Republic of Iran will show no tolerance for any threat directed at it, and reserves the right to respond to these dangerous actions.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Around eight o'clock this morning Israeli combat aircraft attacked targets in the village of Nabtiyah Al-Fouqa, west of the Al-Taer Ridge and near the city of Nabtiyah.

In Israeli Economy and Business, Israeli AI startup Firewave is developing a system that detects wildfires within minutes using sound sensors. Dr. Jenia Yurkovsky, co-founder, says the main bottleneck with wildfires is detection, with rescue services not able to detect fires before they become a major problem. The company installs thousands of sensors near sensitive areas such as national parks or critical infrastructure and uses AI to distinguish normal sounds from those of a fire. Dr. Yurkovsky explains that they have thousands of sounds registered to help the system understand not only if a fire is breaking out, but also if it’s a controlled fire, a fire that was left unlit, or a wildfire produced by hot weather. The project comes as the Jerusalem Hills took almost a year to recover from the 2025 wildfires, with new fires expected as summer begins, according to an April report by the Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael-Jewish National Fund.
