“Energency Medical Services on Unprecedented Nationwide Top Alert”
by Avraham Zuroff and Gil Ronen
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “(IsraelNN.com) Magen David Adom was put on its highest state of alert nationwide Wednesday by MDA Israel Director-General Eli Bin. This is the first time that MDA is on top alert throughout Israel, and not just in specific regions.
Several reasons were given for the high alert:
• The growing number of communities under threat of missile attack by Hamas.
• The concern that violence will get worse on Friday, which the Muslims often use for rioting, and that Arab citizens and residents of Israel will take part in riots.
• Specific intelligence warnings regarding terror attacks that are being planned by Arabs in Judea and Samaria and elsewhere.
• The civil New Year’s Day which is often accompanied by drunken driving accidents and violence between celebrants.
Police are also on high alert. They have arrested 330 people for riots and disturbances since the beginning of Operation Cast Lead.”
