MDA Chiefs Meet to Prepare for Lag B’Omer


1

Magen David Adom commanders have met with officers who will be handling the EMS’ coverage of events in Meron on Lag B’Omer. The meeting included representatives of chareidi organizations that operate under MDA, including Hatzalah.

The senior MDA command visited the site in advance of Sunday’s expected visit of hundreds of thousands to the area, which in actuality will get underway before Shabbos as many Lag B’Omer celebrants will opt to spend Shabbos in northern Israel.

MDA will have two stations operating to provide front line aid to those in need. If and when it is necessary, patients will be transported to a local hospital. An area is also being prepared to serve as a heliport should the services of a chopper be required.

MDA officials stress the senior command will oversee the entire operation from its hi-tech command center.
