Lack of responsibility: Talmud Torah children aged 10 were taken on a trek

After an arduous journey which lasted seven hours of walking, without water and food, the children ended the journey intact.

It turns out that the trip went out without necessary approvals and a non-certified training instructor, with a clear risk of the life of travelers.

You can tell call the Zaka hotline 1220 on entry to a track and update for fear of disappearing in the area. In addition, travelers should make the trips during the day and not endanger themselves after dark.
