Due to the heavy rains: A man who was trapped in a flooded shelter in Umm El Fahm was rescued a little while ago (Wednesday) by a team of fire fighters.

Firefighters from the Hadera station, under the command of Major Bassel Alhot, worked to rescue a man who was trapped inside a shelter whose entrance is at a low level.

As mentioned in the last few hours, heavy rains fell mainly in the Hadera area and surrounding towns – which meant that the person was unable to leave the shelter.

The first team of firefighters who arrived on the scene secured the person who escaped independently with the help of a ladder deployed by firefighters.
