Jeshi la Israel, IDF inaruhusu watalii kuona 'kichaka kinachowaka moto' kwenye Mlima Karkom, Je ni nini hiki? - mfafanuzi
Jeshi limesema kuwa litafungua eneo hilo, ambalo kwa kawaida ni eneo la shabaha kwa silaha za moto la IDF, tarehe 20-21. Desemba 2024
Watu wataruhusiwa kuzuru Mlima Karkom katika eneo la jangwa la Negev kabla ya tukio la "kichaka kinachowaka moto", ambacho kinatarajiwa kutokea Jumamosi, Jeshi la IDF lilitoa kauli hiyo siku ya Jumatatu.
Eneo hilo, ambalo kwa kawaida ni eneo la moto la IDF, litakuwa wazi kwa umma siku ya Ijumaa na Jumamosi, ilisema.
Kwa siku chache mnamo Desemba, wakati wa saa za alasiri, mwanga wa jua huakisi kingo za shimo kwenye Mlima Karkom, na kutoa athari kama ya moto na kuingiza kichaka kinachowaka kibiblia ambacho kupitia hicho Mungu alifunuliwa kwa Musa.
Mwangaza wa mwanga unaonekana hasa tarehe 21 Desemba, siku fupi zaidi ya mwaka.
Ukiwa na mwinuko wa mita 850 juu ya usawa wa bahari, Mlima Karkom pia unajivunia safu ya matokeo ya kiakiolojia na michoro ya mural inayohusu Enzi ya Shaba.
Baadhi ya michoro inaonyesha motifu za kidini za Kiyahudi, kama vile wanyama wa kibiblia na utunzi wa hadithi ya Kutoka.
Kulingana na Kituo cha Utalii cha Har Hanegev, watafiti wengine wanaamini kuwa Mlima Karkom ulikuwa mahali pa ibada, na mwanaakiolojia Emmanuel Anati ameutaja kuwa Mlima Sinai.
IDF inatahadharisha wageni
Kabla ya kufunguliwa kwa eneo la wageni, IDF iliuliza kwamba umma "wajizuie kuingia katika maeneo yaliyozuiliwa ya karibu na kuruhusu vikosi vya usalama kuendelea kutekeleza misheni zao.
"Mafunzo ya kuzima moto yanafanyika katika maeneo haya, na kwa hiyo, kuingia katika eneo la kijeshi bila uratibu na idhini ya awali kunahatarisha usalama wa wasafiri," IDF ilisema.
IDF allows visitors to see 'burning bush' on Mt. Karkom, but what is it? - explainer
The military noted it would open the area, habitually an IDF fire zone, on December 20-21.
People will be allowed to visit Mount Karkom in the Negev region ahead of the “burning bush” phenomenon, which is set to take place on Saturday, the IDF said Monday.
The area, which is usually an IDF live-fire zone, would be open to the public on Friday and Saturday, it said.
For a few days in December, during the afternoon hours, the sunlight reflects on the edges of an aperture in a cave on Mount Karkom, producing a fire-like effect and assimilating the biblical burning bush through which God was revealed to Moses.
The radiating light is particularly visible on December 21, the shortest day of the year.
With an elevation of 850 meters above sea level, Mount Karkom also boasts an array of archaeological findings and mural drawings dating primarily to the Bronze Age.
Some of the drawings depict Jewish religious motifs, such as biblical animals and the enactment of the Exodus story.
According to the Har Hanegev Tourism Center, some researchers believe Mount Karkom was a place of worship, and archeologist Emmanuel Anati has identified it as Mount Sinai.
IDF cautions visitors
Ahead of the opening of the area for visitors, the IDF asked that the public “refrain from entering the restricted adjacent areas and to allow security forces to continue carrying out their missions.“Live-fire training is taking place in these areas, and therefore, entering a military zone without prior coordination and approval endangers the safety of travelers,” the IDF said.
