Answer:

There are four rivers in modern Israel: Jordan, Qishon, Yarqon, and Yarmuk.

The Jordan is the largest river in Israel, beginning in the foothills of Mt Hermon. It runs north to south and follows a course of 167km (104 miles) along its meandering path to the Dead Sea, or 104km (65 miles) as the crow flies.

The Qishon (Kishon) River, considered the most polluted river in Israel, flows into the Mediterranean Sea at the city of Haifa.

The Yarqon River in west-central Israel is about 26km (16 miles) long, beginning at Tel Afek (Antipatris), north of Petah Tikva, and flowing through to the Mediterranean Sea at Tel Aviv.

The Yarmuk River forms the boundaries between Jordan, Syria, and Israel and is about 80km (50 miles) long.

There are many nachalot, or wadis, streams that are dry for some if not most of the year, throughout the country including the arid south though the majority are concentrated in the north including the tributaries of the Jordan; the Snir, Hermon and Dan.
