Two residents of the Binyamin region Jewish community of Cochav Ya'akov were treated Sunday evening for smoke inhalation as a result of a fire that broke outside the community's perimeter fence.

Crews of five fire engines from Binyamin, Jerusalem and Ma'aleh Adumim were battling the blaze but did not have control as of 9:00 p.m. Access to the community was blocked from two directions.
