When under direct threat of terror attacks and rocket attacks, first responders in Israel can still respond and provide lifesaving aid to those in need thanks to The Fellowship, reports JNS:
Prioritizing the safety of those who protect and serve others, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews marked the distribution of five armored ambulances at a cost of nearly 6 million shekels (about $1.7 million). The ambulances were presented last week to Magen David Adom at a ceremony at the organization’s headquarters, attended by Safwan Marich, IFCJ director of security and emergency response; Gil Moskowitz, MDA deputy director general of operations; and senior managers affiliated with MDA.
Amid the events of Oct. 7, 2023, and Israel’s ongoing war with Hamas in Gaza, Israel’s first responders have often been thrust to the front lines, with civilians being a regular target for attacks. The armored vehicles enable first-aid crews to operate in areas even under direct threat of shooting and rocket attacks, and help ensure life-saving responses to emergencies that require quick and professional medical intervention.
