Police Chief Superintendent Dudu Buhadana said, “We’ll have shuttle buses dropping off passengers in the parking lots throughout the day, including at night. We demanded from the Ministry of Transport That not a single person remain on the mountain without a bus. There will be messages for the public on large LED screens in three languages.”
CEO of United Hatzalah Rabbi Ze’ev Kashash spoke of the cooperation with MDA, Ezer M’zion, Lev Malka and all other rescue organizations. Hundreds of volunteers will be placed in mobile teams and dozens of motorcycles will be deployed on the mountain. They also built two medical clinics in case of emergency.
MK Eichler welcomed the cooperation and implementation of the Committee’s recommendations by the government, transport, police, the minister of religious affairs and the CEO, who devoted days and nights to prepare “Operation Meron”. Eichler called on the public to buy bus tickets in advance and not at the last minute. He also called on passengers to respect their bus drivers.
The committee will hold a hearing after Lag B’Omer, to receive the public’s reaction to the implementation of its work.
