Israeli Search and Rescue Organizations En Route to Nepal

United Hatzalah, Zaka and F.I.R.S.T. left Israel on Sunday to be among the first emergency responders to arrive in Nepal as part of an international effort to provide relief following Sunday’s devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake. Funded by IsraeLife, the “search and rescue” delegation will set up field clinics to rescue victims, treat injuries and handle dead bodies.

The powerful earthquake and its aftershocks shook the entire Himalayan region, killing at least 2,500 people. According to recent reports, more than 5,000 people are injured and 150 Israelis are reported missing.

Eli Pollak, CEO of IsraeLife, said, “We decided to enlist the cooperation of the prominent Israeli emergency agencies in order to maximize the capabilities of the delegation, which is made up of experts in serving the needs of the disaster area. We are preparing for a long stay that will provide solutions to the Israelis living in Nepal and local residents.”

The Israeli delegation formed by IsraeLife, United Hatzalah, Zaka and F.I.R.S.T. prepare for take-off at Ben Gurion International Airport on Sunday.
