(JNS) Josh Hasten - 300 United Hatzalah volunteers were on duty in Meron for the Lag B'Omer festival, as well as first-responders from ZAKA, Rescuers Without Borders Israel and Magen David Adom. Itzik Itach, a senior volunteer paramedic with Rescuers Without Borders Israel, described what he saw: "There were bodies piled up on top of each other - some of the people were alive, and some of them were already dead. I have never seen anything like this before. We had to decide who to treat first. We're talking about hundreds of people injured in the midst of thousands of people in the crowd." Dov Maisel of United Hatzalah said, "Our paramedics and EMTs were performing CPR on 20 people at a time, and it was so crowded we couldn't evacuate those who were injured....I've been in this field for more than 30 years. It brought me back to the scenes of the Jerusalem bombings 20 years ago." ZAKA volunteer Haim Spielberg said, "It was so distressing to hear the constant ringing of the cellphones of the deceased. Tears flowed from my eyes when I saw the words Dad or Mom on the phone screen." 2021-05-03 00:00:00Full Article
