(VIDEOS & PHOTOS IN EXTENDED ARTICLE)

A fire broke out near the tziyun of Rav Nachman ZT”L in Uman on Tuesday morning, 3 Kislev. United Hatzalah personnel on location extricated the Sifrei Torah from the site as heavy smoke bellowed from the fire.

As a result of the fire electricity was interrupted at the tziyun. Ichud Breslov personnel on location worked to restore electricity as fast as possible. B’chasdei Hashem, there were no injuries.

In another United Hatzalah Ukraine matter, a course certifying new EMTs completed on Monday evening and a number of rabbonim from the local Breslov community participated in the ceremony.

“Last night we graduated another 12 EMTs in Uman and this morning they already went into action,” said Founder and President of United Hatzalah Eli Beer after he heard about the incident.

Lazar Hyman, the Deputy CEO of the organization in charge of volunteer activities was present during the graduation as well, as were some local Jewish community officials.

“In an effort to improve response times in various Jewish communities in the Ukraine including Uman, we have begun sending course instructors from Israel to the Jewish communities in Ukraine who will lead additional EMT training courses. This will greatly improve the life-saving abilities of our teams there throughout the entire year.”
