On the third day of Operation “Roaring Lion,” volunteers from Hashomer Hachadash continued extensive civilian support efforts across the country, assisting with debris removal, home repairs, and agricultural security in coordination with local authorities and emergency directives.
Dozens of volunteers were active in Tel Aviv on Monday, clearing rubble and sealing apartments damaged in the recent Iranian missile attack. The work was conducted in partnership with the nonprofit Lev Echad and the Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality, part of wider recovery efforts to help residents return safely to their homes.
Meanwhile, volunteers stayed overnight to guard farms and compounds, following Home Front Command guidelines. The organization emphasized that maintaining a presence in rural areas remains a priority, especially during times of increased security tensions.
Additional teams, including members of the Civil Guard and regional volunteers, were sent to Beit Shemesh to assist at the disaster site by clearing debris and supporting local residents as needed. Hashomer Hachadash urged the public to participate in its volunteer efforts, emphasizing that the current situation demands widespread civic mobilization.
Onn Rifman, Deputy CEO of Education and co-founder, stated: “Like in previous operations, our volunteers are the first to respond to every mission in the field. They are clearing debris, sealing windows, helping citizens whose homes were damaged, and continuing to support farmers and farm owners. We invite the public to join these volunteer efforts, and we will remain wherever we are needed.”
