14:20 IL: Zaka received a call for assistance as a group of 150 talmidei yeshiva who organized their own outing got off a bus near Nof Carmel in northern Israel, an area only accessible with 4 X 4 vehicles. This during the hot afternoon hours and a record-breaking heatwave.
Some of the members of the group apparently dehydrated. Working with police and the Carmel search & rescue teams, Zaka is trying to reach the stranded group to treat those requiring medical attention and to extricate them from that area.

That is quite a large # for a tiyul. Perhaps a mishabarach for rescue services maybe in order this Shabbos.
Sorry this happened, but their irresponsibility puts Zaka & Hatzolah lives at risk. It’s time to start thinking. Not every “great” idea should be acted upon.
