Israel’s Fire and Rescue Services are the “weak link” in emergency readiness and the ministerial responsibility for that fact falls on Interior Minister Eli Yishai’s shoulders, a scathing report by State Comptroller Micha revealed Wednesday afternoon. Although initially intended to be part of a larger follow-up report about the failures discovered regarding home front readiness after the Second Lebanon War, Lindenstrauss’s report on the fire services gained new significance after the Carmel fire killed 42 people and caused what is estimated to be billions of shekels of damage.
Lindenstrauss himself described the document as “a very serious report that testifies as well as 100 witnesses on completely unacceptable management, especially on the part of government-level decision-makers.”
