The "Rising Lion War" began with a storm, and alongside the impressive achievements of our pilots in the Persian Gulf, the home front is once again on the frontlines and taking significant hits. Fatal strikes are causing building collapses, complete destruction, and unfortunately also casualties both physical and psychological.
In light of the complex situation, we have opened a special section on the agency's website that consolidates important and critical information for you regarding the operation's impact on Israel's construction industry. Read here, for example, how to care for a construction site that is not operating, what happens if a site is damaged, how the security situation relates to earthquake preparedness, and what role urban renewal plays in all of this scenario.
The articles were written by the agency's top insurance experts, Itzik Simon and others, drawing on our extensive experience in complex security situations.
We will continue to upload additional updated materials as the situation develops.
