Magen Yehuda Current Activities
Training Facility Project in Itamar:
We have recently embarked on a new project that will offer the communities of Judea and Samaria the ability train indoors with "Airsoft" equipment. An appropriate building has been donated and we are currently soliciting funds to cover the cost of renovations to the facility. Our plan is to create a versatile training facility that will allow for real to life simulation exercises. The building will include rooms with moveable walls so that our volunteers will be able to role play actual scenarios in multiple situations. Additionally, several video cameras will be set up to record the "action" that will allow our staff and volunteers to review the exercises, taking their training to a higher level of understanding.
The first responders will be using equipment with latest technology so that what they train with will be very similar to the security equipment they use in the field.
Training Communities:
We have just raised enough funds to fully train at least 2 first response teams over the enxt year at an average of 1 training session every 1.5 months. We have already begun training two very serious "kitot konanut" from Samarian communities that have had dealt with several infiltrations in the past few weeks.
In order for us to set up training for the other several communities who have requested our services we will need to raise funds quickly. Time is of essence as recently many terrorists with blood on their hands have been set free in a prisoner exchange of historic proprotions. Please help us with your generous donation so that we can help protect Jewish communities throughout Israel!
To join us in our realization of both of the above projects, please see "Support Opportunities" at the top of the page of our website and give generously.
