The Minister of the Negev, the Galilee and National Resilience Yitzhak Wasserlauf spoke this evening (Thursday) with heads of authorities in the north following the recent escalation and announced that he is preparing a quick response to strengthen community resilience in the north.

"Our national resilience also consists of the residents' ability to deal with emergency situations. The Ministry team led by me is currently working on building additional aid for the benefit of the residents of the north, as the security situation prolongs and worsens," Wasserlauf said.
