Israeli President Isaac Herzog paid a visit to the headquarters of the emergency medical services organization United Hatzalah.

During the visit, Herzog met with the organization's president Eli Beer and the management team and said: "United Hatzalah is one of the organizations that first arrives on the scene to save lives. This morning we received an overview of the volunteers’ activities in emergencies, the technological capabilities and the operational tools. We also saw a magnificent mosaic artwork expressing the desire of Israel's silent majority to move forward together."

Emphasizing the importance of social unity, Herzog said: "When we are all in missile shelters, the missiles do not distinguish between us, and we must emerge from this war more united and harmonious."

Herzog added: "In particular, the inauguration of a new emergency vehicle in memory of the late Ronit Elimelech, a compassionate woman and volunteer of the organization who passed away last week, was a very emotional moment. Alongside the pain and hardships, we have an incredible resilience."

President Herzog concluded his remarks by saying: "The people of Israel are strong and courageous. We will overcome it like a lion."
