The source of the threat is a Russian enclave called Kaliningrad, located in the heart of Europe, between Poland and Lithuania. According to the experts, ballistic missiles can reach Berlin in just five and a half minutes from there, and the Germans asked for assistance from Israel, thanks to their experience in dealing with fire. Yoel Har-Evan, head of the international resource development division at the Sheba Medical Center, who headed the delegation, said: “Germany has not been under a security threat in the last 80 years, and so are its hospitals. The local government is very worried about the possibility that the war in Ukraine will get out of control, and the ability Certain that the Russians have to attack in the territory of the country.”

Har-Evan also added: “There are no alternative deployment locations for critical infrastructure in Berlin such as operating rooms, intensive care rooms or maternity wards. Here in Israel, these infrastructures not only exist, they are also properly protected or they are in basements.” Regarding the hospital’s intensive care unit, which is on the fifth floor of a building with large windows, he said: “When you come to assess risks, it is a weak point.”
