On October 7, around 1,700 UH volunteers arrived via dispatch centers and on their own initiative to help save lives.
Beer stressed that United Hatzalah caters to all communities in Israel and the West Bank, and would foster peace in the region.
While our attention has understandably been focused on security and war-related concerns, we cannot forget that routine safety matters still demand our vigilance.
According to Walla, a woman sustained minor wounds. The incident is under investigation.
The circumstances surrounding the fire are still being investigated, according to Ynet. Four fire crews from Ramat Gan, Tel Aviv and Bnei Brak are tackling the flames.
Doa Al Aubra, who joined UH in 2022, was appointed deputy head of the Rahat branch.
“Only on Sunday did I realize what danger we were in on Oct. 7. We were concentrating so hard on caring for the wounded."
UH volunteers represent all sectors of Israeli society, the statement said, and include doctors, paramedics, and medics stationed throughout the country.
The exercise drew critical lessons from the Majdal Shams rocket attack that killed 12 children in July, United Hatzalah said.
