The Israeli firefighter representatives spent a week in California, supporting American members fighting Parisis hell. One of the team members said that this experience was “honored” and was an opportunity to give back.
Last week, 34 -year -old Israeli firefighter, Richi Amor, arrived in Los Angeles with other fire departments teams in cooperation with the local units and the urgent services of the California Governor's Agency, and “high advanced Israel. We are using technology to rescue, “the fire is extinguished.”
“It doesn't matter if you live in Los Angeles, live in Miami, live in Tel Avib, or live in Jerusalem. We are all human. We need to be together. I need to help. He spoke in an interview with Fox News Digital.

Amor believed that it was important to help the “brothers” in the United States, so he jumped around the world on a 15 -hour airplane, leaving his three young children on the previous day.
“I feel like you have to do something, because you're watching all the damage,” she said. “The first thing I can think of … those people … the people who have all the house, and now they don't have anything. Everything has been burned.”

Amor said that when he arrived in Los Angeles, he witnessed the disastrous situation of the American firefighter when he was informing her team about the work and activities to be performed in the future.
“The moment we arrived there and arrived at the field with the field, we met all the firefighters. They opened our hearts and opened our hearts … To explain to us, we have to tell them to what to ask … from our knowledge, “she explained.
“We came in a group … Everyone is expert. There are logistics experts, and there are people who are active, and some have expertise in mountain fire.”
