Stronghold in judea and samaria. in israel, they identified the
00:00:19.734 --> 00:00:23.738
Iranian effort through hamas and the palestinian islamic jihad to
00:00:23.738 --> 00:00:27.308
Stir up disorder and chaos in the area with violent attacks
00:00:27.308 --> 00:00:32.013
And riots, while establishing infrastructures aiming to
00:00:32.013 --> 00:00:35.917
Challenge the idf with attacks throughout judea and samaria.
00:00:35.917 --> 00:00:39.521
The goals of the operation are to maintain the idf's freedom of

Action, destroy terror infrastructures, and neutralize

Immediate threats. meanwhile, discussions have begun on the
00:00:47.829 --> 00:00:51.699
Second stage of the hostage deal with hamas, and an emerging
00:00:51.699 --> 00:00:55.703
Clause might torpedo this phase. speaking of cease fire deals
00:00:55.703 --> 00:01:01.276
Under the ceasefire agreement with hezbollah, the idf must
00:01:01.276 --> 00:01:04.746
Complete its withdrawal from southern lebanon by this coming

Already carried out i'm your announcer neutralization
00:01:12.954 --> 00:01:16.291
Operations against hezbollah infrastructure, while admitting
00:01:16.291 --> 00:01:19.894
It's likely that some of the requests came from the idf. in a

00:01:24.499 --> 00:01:28.536
Israel that they will not allow iran to smuggle weapons through

Their territory to hezbollah in lebanon. and speaking of
00:01:32.107 --> 00:01:37.045
Hezbollah, a senior official makes a stunning confession,
00:01:37.045 --> 00:01:40.715
Saying we did not correctly assess israel's power. on the
00:01:40.715 --> 00:01:45.286
Same day, another senior hezbollah official was shot to
00:01:45.286 --> 00:01:49.057
Death a moment after leaving his home by an unidentified team of
00:01:49.057 --> 00:01:54.462
Assassins. meanwhile, in the gaza strip, the idf arabic
00:01:54.462 --> 00:01:58.600
Spokesperson clarified to gazan residents, if hamas abides by
00:01:58.600 --> 00:02:02.370
The agreement, you can return to the northern gaza strip. in a

00:02:06.574 --> 00:02:10.178
That hostage sasha 2½ is expected to be released alive.
00:02:10.178 --> 00:02:14.616
His condition is satisfactory, but not positive. and speaking
00:02:14.616 --> 00:02:19.354
Of great power politics, the vision of the new trump
00:02:19.354 --> 00:02:23.925
Administration in the united states for israel and the middle
00:02:23.925 --> 00:02:26.594
East is coming into view, including a possible war with
00:02:26.594 --> 00:02:30.732
Iran. hopefully, peace with saudi arabia and the toppling of
00:02:30.732 --> 00:02:34.702
Hamas in the gaza strip. and finally, there was a terror
00:02:34.702 --> 00:02:38.273
Attack in the heart of tel aviv in israel on tuesday. the
00:02:38.273 --> 00:02:42.544
Terrorist, who was born in morocco and holds american
00:02:42.544 --> 00:02:45.780
Residency, entered israel on a tourist visa. but he wasn't here
00:02:45.780 --> 00:02:49.684
To hang out by the beach because on tuesday he stabbed four
00:02:49.684 --> 00:02:53.454
People before being shot dead by off duty israeli security
00:02:53.454 --> 00:02:57.692
Personnel. we have a lot to talk about today, so let's dive into
00:02:57.692 --> 00:03:01.696
The details. i'm yael pinto, and this is your boots on the ground
00:03:01.696 --> 00:03:12.173
Report about what is happening in israel. on day 474 of the war
00:03:12.173 --> 00:03:16.844
With hamas, hezbollah, the houthis in yemen, the shiite
00:03:16.844 --> 00:03:20.415
Militias in iraq. and now we must add criminal gangs and
00:03:20.415 --> 00:03:24.519
Terrorist groups in judea and samaria, all acting under the
00:03:24.519 --> 00:03:29.057
Control of the revolutionary guards corps in iran, which is
00:03:29.057 --> 00:03:33.027
The head of the axis of evil in the middle east. a moment before
00:03:33.027 --> 00:03:36.798
We begin, i want to invite you to subscribe to tbn israel on
00:03:36.798 --> 00:03:40.602
Youtube to receive daily boots on the ground reports from
00:03:40.602 --> 00:03:44.639
Israel. our vision at tbn israel is to share the truth and
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:49.077
Encourage you to unite in prayer for the peace of jerusalem. the
00:03:49.077 --> 00:03:54.816
Idf, shin bet and border police launched operation iron wall on
00:03:54.816 --> 00:03:59.988
Tuesday to push back a rising tide of terrorism and
00:03:59.988 --> 00:04:03.891
Lawlessness in the west bank palestinian village of jenin.
00:04:03.891 --> 00:04:07.328
The air force carried out a preliminary strike, after which
00:04:07.328 --> 00:04:11.466
Idf special units raided the jenin refugee camp, considered
00:04:11.466 --> 00:04:15.770
The hamas stronghold in northern samaria. the idf forces caught
00:04:15.770 --> 00:04:20.908
Terrorists off guard by beginning the operation in broad
00:04:20.908 --> 00:04:24.545
Daylight just about midday, when the streets in jenin were
00:04:24.545 --> 00:04:28.850
Bustling. eyewitnesses reports indicate that, parallel to the
00:04:28.850 --> 00:04:33.187
Operations start at the camp, israeli military reinforcements
00:04:33.187 --> 00:04:37.125
Were observed moving from the al-jalama checkpoint towards the
00:04:37.125 --> 00:04:42.096
City. it was also reported that the palestinian authority's
00:04:42.096 --> 00:04:45.366
Security forces are withdrawn from the area after several days
00:04:45.366 --> 00:04:49.337
Of trying to get control of the streets, which ended in failure.
00:04:49.337 --> 00:04:54.042
We have to give them credit for trying, but in the end they
00:04:54.042 --> 00:04:57.779
Didn't have the capacity to finish the job. just yesterday,
00:04:57.779 --> 00:05:01.716
Matti shoshani and i were at the gush etzion junction in judea
00:05:01.716 --> 00:05:05.019
And samaria, bringing you boots on the ground, coverage of the
00:05:05.019 --> 00:05:09.624
Deteriorating security situation in the area. while we were in
00:05:09.624 --> 00:05:12.927
The middle of filming for you, the idf began the operation and
00:05:12.927 --> 00:05:16.831
The hamas terrorist organization released an official statement
00:05:16.831 --> 00:05:20.601
Saying, we call on the masses of our people in the west bank and
00:05:20.601 --> 00:05:23.938
Its rebellious youth to enlist and escalate the confrontation
00:05:23.938 --> 00:05:28.209
With the occupation army at every point of contact with it,
00:05:28.209 --> 00:05:32.580
And to act to confuse it and thwart the wide ranging zionist
00:05:32.580 --> 00:05:37.385
Aggression against the city of jenin and its refugee camp. in
00:05:37.385 --> 00:05:40.822
Other words, they want a general uprising, which i'm happy to be
00:05:40.822 --> 00:05:45.560
Able to tell you didn't happen. it also needs to be pointed out
00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:49.764
That the idf only acted in jenin after the palestinian authority
00:05:49.764 --> 00:05:53.434
Police spent most of the last month trying to get control
00:05:53.434 --> 00:05:57.038
There. like i said before, you have to give credit for trying.
00:05:57.038 --> 00:06:01.442
But the iranians have built up the terrorist groups and
00:06:01.442 --> 00:06:04.579
Criminal gangs there, to a point where the palestinian authority
00:06:04.579 --> 00:06:08.249
Police couldn't overcome them. here at tbn.tv reohm. we will
00:06:08.249 --> 00:06:12.253
Continue to update you on every development in judea and
00:06:12.253 --> 00:06:15.123
Samaria. we're going to take a short commercial break, and we
00:06:15.123 --> 00:06:18.393
Will be right back with more news from israel. a war zone in
00:06:18.393 --> 00:06:27.335
The gaza strip. being under fire by hamas terrorists. you don't
00:06:27.335 --> 00:06:31.305
Have time to sit and drink your coffee and wake up in the
00:06:31.305 --> 00:06:34.542
Morning and get ready for the day and prepare. so sometimes i
00:06:34.542 --> 00:06:38.446
Woke up at two in the morning after an hour and a half of
00:06:38.446 --> 00:06:41.449
Sleep, and you need to wake up immediately and do your job and
00:06:41.449 --> 00:06:45.720
Do it to perfection. or people die.
00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:48.923
>> you literally have your life on the line. you don't know what
00:06:48.923 --> 00:06:52.493
Corner you turn, and somebody has got a gun pointed at you.
00:06:52.493 --> 00:06:59.700
>> so in order to wake up, i just took a vinegar pill and i
00:06:59.700 --> 00:07:03.271
Really felt the energy levels go up faster. the clarity of mind
00:07:03.271 --> 00:07:07.208
That doesn't usually happen immediately when you wake up in
00:07:07.208 --> 00:07:10.778
The morning. and i don't remember taking much stuff with
00:07:10.778 --> 00:07:13.481
Me into the gaza strip. had my sleeping bag, a flashlight, and
00:07:13.481 --> 00:07:17.552
The vinegar bottle. so that's what i had with me.
00:07:17.552 --> 00:07:21.656
>> you're a young person. you're very healthy, but you still
00:07:21.656 --> 00:07:24.592
Think that vinegar was helpful to get you to even a higher
00:07:24.592 --> 00:07:29.197
Level of performance.
00:07:29.197 --> 00:07:30.431
>> it's helping me to exceed my normal abilities. so let's say,
00:07:30.531 --> 00:07:34.001
You know, i'm at 100%, and that puts me at 120. with raising
00:07:34.001 --> 00:07:38.906
Three kids, you need to be sharp to make the right decisions.
00:07:38.906 --> 00:07:42.210
>> raising three kids may be equal to combat.
00:07:42.210 --> 00:07:45.413
>> a lot harder, a lot harder. listen, i'm still taking it
00:07:45.413 --> 00:07:48.616
Every day because i want to be there with my kids when they
00:07:48.616 --> 00:07:51.953
Grow old. i want to be able to dance at their wedding and carry
00:07:51.953 --> 00:07:55.590
My kids and my grandkids for years to come. and this is the
00:07:55.590 --> 00:07:59.327
Time to start. i mean, when you're young.
00:07:59.327 --> 00:08:11.672
And now let's move on to what's happening in our
00:08:11.772 --> 00:08:14.609
Neighborhood, the middle east, with tbn.tv, israel's
00:08:14.609 --> 00:08:17.478
Senior middle east analyst matti shoshani.
00:08:17.478 --> 00:08:20.314
>> with president donald trump back in the white house, his
00:08:20.314 --> 00:08:23.918
Administration signals a decisive shift in us foreign
00:08:23.918 --> 00:08:27.154
Policy. the previous trump administration was known to have
00:08:27.154 --> 00:08:30.858
Been strongly pro-israel and at the same time, incredibly fast
00:08:30.858 --> 00:08:34.662
Moving in the application of foreign policy and specifically
00:08:34.662 --> 00:08:38.266
When it came to the middle east. let's break this down. first and
00:08:38.266 --> 00:08:41.969
Foremost, the us is on the move to do something big and
00:08:41.969 --> 00:08:45.172
Something quick. in the middle east, they were behind this
00:08:45.172 --> 00:08:48.042
Latest deal between hamas and israel. trump himself and
00:08:48.042 --> 00:08:51.312
Several of his aides were personally involved in ensuring
00:08:51.312 --> 00:08:54.448
That the deal went through quickly. but more so, we're back
00:08:54.448 --> 00:08:58.119
To discussing how saudi arabia is going to be a future aid or
00:08:58.119 --> 00:09:02.456
Possible partner in what was known as the abraham accords.
00:09:02.456 --> 00:09:06.227
Let me remind everyone that the us administration under donald
00:09:06.227 --> 00:09:09.697
Trump did more in four years than most diplomats can hope to
00:09:09.697 --> 00:09:13.367
Do in an entire lifetime. between moving the us embassy to
00:09:13.367 --> 00:09:16.971
Jerusalem, recognizing the golan heights and israel's stake in
00:09:16.971 --> 00:09:19.807
The golan heights, jerusalem as its capital and the abraham
00:09:19.807 --> 00:09:23.210
Accords, those in themselves are things that other countries and
00:09:23.210 --> 00:09:27.348
Other us administrations were unable to do for decades
00:09:27.348 --> 00:09:31.218
Beforehand. but we can only expect that trump will be given
00:09:31.218 --> 00:09:34.155
Even more than that. but and here's a big but in this
00:09:34.155 --> 00:09:37.792
Situation, the trump administration is known to push
00:09:37.792 --> 00:09:40.962
Deals rather than just aid for warfare. so instead of possibly
00:09:40.962 --> 00:09:45.366
More aid for warfare weapons, munitions to the israeli army,
00:09:45.366 --> 00:09:50.071
They might push a regional deal, like we mentioned, with the
00:09:50.071 --> 00:09:53.574
Saudis or possibly with the palestinians, hamas or
00:09:53.574 --> 00:09:57.612
Otherwise. there's another problem. this war for the state
00:09:57.612 --> 00:09:59.780
Of israel is a bit tricky. we need to develop a whole lot of
00:09:59.780 --> 00:10:03.417
New weapon systems, and we've done so rapidly during the war,
00:10:03.417 --> 00:10:06.654
And that has come at a very high price financially, manpower
00:10:06.654 --> 00:10:11.959
Wise, long term planning wise, on many, many levels. it's been
00:10:11.959 --> 00:10:15.262
Painful and expensive, and the us aid that we receive both
00:10:15.262 --> 00:10:18.566
During the war and in general throughout the years is aid that
00:10:18.566 --> 00:10:22.403
We need to spend within the us itself. it bolsters it,
00:10:22.403 --> 00:10:26.007
Strengthens the us economy, but it doesn't necessarily help pay
00:10:26.007 --> 00:10:29.677
The bills locally in israel. and one last big thing about the
00:10:29.677 --> 00:10:33.514
Trump administration is that when you move fast, sometimes
00:10:33.514 --> 00:10:37.518
Unexpected events take place. and that might be the case here.
00:10:37.518 --> 00:10:41.455
We know the evil that we know currently, but we don't know
00:10:41.455 --> 00:10:44.458
What shooting from the hip might look like under the trump
00:10:44.458 --> 00:10:47.395
Administration and how it might bring into the picture new
00:10:47.395 --> 00:10:49.830
Proxies in this region that we didn't previously expect. just
00:10:49.830 --> 00:10:54.001
Here's one example of something we're not expecting. we know
00:10:54.001 --> 00:10:56.937
What the houthis are doing right now, but we don't know what they
00:10:56.937 --> 00:11:00.841
Might do if the us destabilizes iran further than what it
00:11:00.841 --> 00:11:06.013
Currently is at with the trump administration back in the white
00:11:06.013 --> 00:11:09.684
House, things are going to change. within days of retaking
00:11:09.684 --> 00:11:12.386
Office, trump reinstated his maximum pressure campaign
00:11:12.386 --> 00:11:15.990
Targeting iran's oil exports. this aggressive approach is
00:11:15.990 --> 00:11:19.694
Expected to cut revenue to the iranian government by $30
00:11:19.694 --> 00:11:24.031
Billion annually, further destabilizing iran's already
00:11:24.031 --> 00:11:28.235
Weakened economy. so tehran faces growing unrest, economic
00:11:28.235 --> 00:11:31.806
Collapse and internal divisions, with protests intensifying and
00:11:31.806 --> 00:11:35.776
Hardliners within the country resisting reform, the iranian
00:11:35.776 --> 00:11:39.413
Regime must weigh the cost of its actions very carefully.
00:11:39.413 --> 00:11:43.751
Trump's alignment with israel reinforces the pressure but
00:11:43.751 --> 00:11:47.321
Raises the risk of regional escalation even further. when it
00:11:47.321 --> 00:11:51.625
Comes to the iranian revolutionary islamic
00:11:51.625 --> 00:11:54.929
Government. and then there's another question here can this
00:11:54.929 --> 00:11:57.565
Region be even further destabilized compared to what it
00:11:57.565 --> 00:12:00.468
Is now? because you might say to yourself, well, between hamas,
00:12:00.468 --> 00:12:04.972
Between hezbollah, between the syrian regime being toppled
00:12:04.972 --> 00:12:08.175
Within a week, what more can happen in this region? all it
00:12:08.175 --> 00:12:11.445
Takes to almost completely stop global trade is for the houthis
00:12:11.445 --> 00:12:15.382
Or the iranians through the irgc, to slow down global trade
00:12:15.382 --> 00:12:19.920
Through the arabian sea or the red sea, to the point that it
00:12:19.920 --> 00:12:23.557
Could affect global trade costs. that in itself will put a cost
00:12:23.557 --> 00:12:27.328
On the pockets of people throughout the western world or
00:12:27.328 --> 00:12:30.598
Throughout the world altogether. there's more to that. aside from
00:12:30.598 --> 00:12:34.802
That, they might find new proxies that we haven't even
00:12:34.802 --> 00:12:37.338
Thought about. maybe pirates in a country on the eastern coast
00:12:37.338 --> 00:12:40.307
Of africa, who knows what they would come up with next. the us
00:12:40.307 --> 00:12:44.912
Is at war or at conflict with the chinese, and the chinese are
00:12:44.912 --> 00:12:47.681
Trade allies of the iranians. in fact, they get much of their
00:12:47.681 --> 00:12:50.651
Crude oil from the iranian people. so if the us slows down
00:12:50.651 --> 00:12:54.855
The iranian economy and prevents them from exporting oil, that
00:12:54.855 --> 00:12:58.192
Slows down the chinese economy. and that in turn makes things
00:12:58.192 --> 00:13:02.363
Even more tense between the us and china. and of course, israel
00:13:02.363 --> 00:13:07.101
Is in the middle of all of that. we have relationships with both
00:13:07.101 --> 00:13:10.337
Countries, and that, in turn makes things more complicated
00:13:10.337 --> 00:13:13.607
Than what previously was expected to be possible.
00:13:13.607 --> 00:13:18.746
>> blood is the essence of life, fueling every heartbeat and
00:13:18.746 --> 00:13:21.782
Every breath. in times of crisis such as accidents, surgeries, or
00:13:21.782 --> 00:13:26.153
War, the need for blood becomes critical, as it can mean the
00:13:26.153 --> 00:13:31.225
Difference between life and death. for israel, more than any
00:13:31.225 --> 00:13:36.730
Other country, a nation frequently engaged in conflict,
00:13:36.730 --> 00:13:39.466
The importance of blood donations is deeply ingrained.
00:13:39.466 --> 00:13:44.071
Magen david adom, known as mada or mda, israel's first responder
00:13:44.071 --> 00:13:48.542
Service and equivalent to the red cross, serves as the
00:13:48.542 --> 00:13:51.879
National blood bank, providing blood not only for civilians but
00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:56.217
Also for the military, ensuring the country is always prepared
00:13:56.217 --> 00:14:00.221
In its time of need. this truth has never been more evident than
00:14:00.221 --> 00:14:05.559
On october 7th and throughout the war, since, as blood has
00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:09.763
Become the silent hero, saving lives amidst the chaos. i'm a
00:14:09.763 --> 00:14:21.642
Mother's new marcus blood service center in ramla. i'm
00:14:21.642 --> 00:14:25.279
About to meet professor ayla mardas, deputy director general
00:14:25.279 --> 00:14:29.917
And head of israeli blood services, professor shinar.
00:14:29.917 --> 00:14:35.356
October 7th.
00:14:35.356 --> 00:14:36.557
>> saw an immediate demand for a huge amount of blood units to
00:14:36.657 --> 00:14:39.393
Help all the injured. so maybe tell us that story and how that
00:14:39.393 --> 00:14:42.596
Affected you personally.
00:14:42.596 --> 00:14:45.165
>> october 7th was something that i think every israeli will
00:14:45.165 --> 00:14:47.868
Remember exactly where we were in 629 in the morning, because
00:14:47.868 --> 00:14:52.439
It was simhat torah. it was after the holidays. we were
00:14:52.439 --> 00:14:56.777
Nationally on a lower level of blood. and once we heard the
00:14:56.777 --> 00:15:02.449
Sirens, it was obvious, i think to everybody, that something
00:15:02.449 --> 00:15:07.121
Different and big is happening. so we decided to start
00:15:07.121 --> 00:15:16.864
Immediately. blood collection. although it was a saturday,
00:15:16.864 --> 00:15:19.366
Although it was a holiday and call upon the public to come and
00:15:19.366 --> 00:15:24.571
Collect blood so we couldn't park our vehicles where we
00:15:24.571 --> 00:15:27.374
Usually do that. our big blood mobiles, we had to call the
00:15:27.374 --> 00:15:30.544
Public into protected areas to donate blood. the response of
00:15:30.544 --> 00:15:34.415
The public was something else. it was amazing how thousands and
00:15:34.415 --> 00:15:39.553
Thousands of people stood in line. we collected actually four
00:15:39.553 --> 00:15:43.891
Times what we do on a regular day. we collected close to 4000
00:15:43.891 --> 00:15:48.362
Units. we cannot make something that will imitate human blood.
00:15:48.362 --> 00:15:56.103
We can land on the moon. we can print organs, but we cannot
00:15:56.103 --> 00:16:01.241
Imitate these cells. the red cells, the platelets, the
00:16:01.241 --> 00:16:05.479
Plasma. and we need human blood for that. so we need each other.
00:16:05.479 --> 00:16:09.984
The fact is that we also need it from volunteer blood donors. we
00:16:09.984 --> 00:16:13.754
Need it from people who would come. and with the only idea or
00:16:13.754 --> 00:16:18.158
The only vision to actually save lives.
00:16:18.158 --> 00:16:22.429
>> walk us through the.
00:16:22.429 --> 00:16:23.697
>> process. so someone donates in one of your vans, or in their
00:16:23.697 --> 00:16:26.934
Office or in a military base. what happens to the blood after
00:16:26.934 --> 00:16:30.137
That?
00:16:30.137 --> 00:16:31.405
>> blood is collected on special cooling units, which keep them
00:16:31.405 --> 00:16:35.976
In temperature of 22 degrees till we can separate them. here
00:16:35.976 --> 00:16:40.681
We separate the whole blood as taken from the donor half a
00:16:40.681 --> 00:16:44.651
Liter. and we make two components the red blood cells
00:16:44.651 --> 00:16:48.455
And the plasma. the way the separation works is that
00:16:48.455 --> 00:16:52.526
Actually there is a push.
00:16:52.526 --> 00:16:54.328
>> yeah, it's squeezing it out.
00:16:54.328 --> 00:16:55.562
>> and it squeezing it out. okay. the minute the red cells
00:16:55.562 --> 00:16:59.700
Will be with the exact amount of plasma that we need to stay in
00:16:59.700 --> 00:17:04.171
The bag for transfusion, it will stop.
00:17:04.171 --> 00:17:07.841
>> and how is it measuring it?
00:17:07.841 --> 00:17:10.210
>> there is a there is an optical sensor, an optical
00:17:10.210 --> 00:17:13.380
Sensor.
00:17:13.380 --> 00:17:13.981
>> on the back of the unit.
00:17:14.081 --> 00:17:15.315
>> yeah. and in parallel we do the testing on the tubes that
00:17:15.315 --> 00:17:18.652
Are taken from each donor. in october 7th we have 12,000 test
00:17:18.652 --> 00:17:24.925
Tubes to test. this exactly is why we build this lab. so we can
00:17:24.925 --> 00:17:30.164
Do many thousands of test tubes going on an automated line. so
00:17:30.164 --> 00:17:35.469
The line feeds the machines that are testing. here we have
00:17:35.469 --> 00:17:39.640
Molecular testing of hiv, hepatitis, west nile virus. here
00:17:39.640 --> 00:17:44.011
We have serological testing of the same viruses. and these two
00:17:44.011 --> 00:17:49.116
Are for the blood typing group. so everything is automated.
00:17:49.116 --> 00:17:52.986
Hands off technicians supervises the testing, supervises the
00:17:52.986 --> 00:17:58.058
Results and make sure that everything is okay. but the real
00:17:58.058 --> 00:18:02.262
Work is done by technology. then the whole information is put
00:18:02.262 --> 00:18:07.734
Together in a software that we have a special software, and
00:18:07.734 --> 00:18:11.004
Then we can label the unit and release them to the hospitals or
00:18:11.004 --> 00:18:15.342
To the idf.
00:18:15.342 --> 00:18:16.543
>> incredibly impressive. it looks like something out of a
00:18:16.543 --> 00:18:20.914
Futuristic film. yeah.
00:18:20.914 --> 00:18:23.050
>> we get a specific label which says this is an a+ unit donated,
00:18:23.050 --> 00:18:28.255
And that day expired on this date, etc. all the information
00:18:28.255 --> 00:18:31.792
Is done here, so we can complete the whole traceability from the
00:18:31.792 --> 00:18:35.762
Donor to the patient or back from the patient to the donor.
00:18:35.762 --> 00:18:39.867
>> amazing.
00:18:39.867 --> 00:18:40.968
>> we in israel collect about 280 000 units each year to
00:18:41.068 --> 00:18:46.073
Provide all these components to all the hospitals in the country
00:18:46.073 --> 00:18:49.576
And to the idf. the idf in israel. unlike many other
00:18:49.576 --> 00:18:53.113
Countries in the world, they don't have a military blood bank
00:18:53.113 --> 00:18:56.850
Of their own. they get all their needs from us. there are two big
00:18:56.850 --> 00:19:00.687
Challenges of using blood in the army. in the last, i would say,
00:19:00.687 --> 00:19:06.160
Six years. the first was that we change the red cells that we
00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:10.397
Used to have on the helicopters. we used to deliver them to what
00:19:10.397 --> 00:19:14.301
We call whole blood units, or what is called in the army, the
00:19:14.301 --> 00:19:18.505
Real blood, which are actually the whole blood unit and
00:19:18.505 --> 00:19:20.774
Separated. the whole half a liter is taken from the donor.
00:19:20.774 --> 00:19:24.845
It's taken from o, rh plus donors. and we do that because
00:19:24.845 --> 00:19:28.882
This is the blood that you can give to everybody without
00:19:28.882 --> 00:19:32.019
Knowing the blood type. during the war, a major thing happened
00:19:32.019 --> 00:19:36.190
In the policy of blood giving in the army, which is to take this
00:19:36.190 --> 00:19:41.461
Unit far forward into the battlefield, so not to wait till
00:19:41.461 --> 00:19:45.365
The helicopter comes with the units on board, but to actually
00:19:45.365 --> 00:19:48.902
Start treating the patient, the severely wounded, bleeding
00:19:48.902 --> 00:19:52.439
Patient in the field with this unit. this actually lowered the
00:19:52.439 --> 00:19:57.444
Mortality of the severely wounded patient to less than 7%.
00:19:57.444 --> 00:20:03.050
This is an unheard of number in the world.
00:20:03.050 --> 00:20:05.552
>> i spent more than six months in uniform in this last war. you
00:20:05.552 --> 00:20:09.456
Think about. it's a soldier who, instead of dying on the
00:20:09.456 --> 00:20:13.360
Battlefield, lives to fight another day.
00:20:13.360 --> 00:20:17.030
>> this is the whole blood unit that we talked about. half a
00:20:17.030 --> 00:20:20.234
Liter of blood as taken from the donor. meaning that it contains
00:20:20.234 --> 00:20:24.404
All the components. the red cells, the platelet, the plasma.
00:20:24.404 --> 00:20:27.608
>> the cry is what the army is using.
00:20:27.608 --> 00:20:29.409
>> now, this is what the army is using.
00:20:29.409 --> 00:20:31.745
>> so what i'm working on right now, this can end up with a
00:20:31.745 --> 00:20:35.682
Wounded soldier or civilian saving their life.
00:20:35.682 --> 00:20:37.084
>> exactly. i think that the most important thing when you
00:20:37.084 --> 00:20:41.955
Prepare for a disaster, actually, they have a very
00:20:41.955 --> 00:20:44.391
Strong preparedness plan. which brings me just to mention that
00:20:44.391 --> 00:20:48.695
The facility we are sitting in is a new brand facility that was
00:20:48.695 --> 00:20:53.400
Built by magen david adom and with the help of the american
00:20:53.400 --> 00:20:57.571
Friends of magen david adom and other friends society. and we
00:20:57.571 --> 00:21:00.574
Built here a facility that can process up to half a million
00:21:00.574 --> 00:21:06.747
Units per year, meaning twice what we are doing today, all in
00:21:06.747 --> 00:21:10.083
A protected area. we are sitting actually in a shelter here, so
00:21:10.083 --> 00:21:14.254
All the sirens and all the missiles from wherever they
00:21:14.254 --> 00:21:18.558
Come, do not interrupt the work of the people, do not interrupt
00:21:18.558 --> 00:21:23.630
The processing and keep the blood inventory safe.
00:21:23.630 --> 00:21:28.001
>> so aside from.
00:21:28.001 --> 00:21:28.802
>> the blood bank, you also run.
00:21:28.802 --> 00:21:30.704
>> a milk bank?
00:21:30.704 --> 00:21:32.372
>> yes.
00:21:32.372 --> 00:21:33.140
>> are you responsible for that too?
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:34.574
>> yeah.
00:21:34.574 --> 00:21:35.175
>> what does that mean?
00:21:35.175 --> 00:21:36.410
>> this is our youngest project. okay. lovely project. happy
00:21:36.410 --> 00:21:38.979
Project. so the knesset asked us to build a the national human
00:21:38.979 --> 00:21:43.717
Milk bank with the collaboration of the ministry of health. my
00:21:43.717 --> 00:21:47.020
First question was, does it save lives? because if magen david
00:21:47.020 --> 00:21:50.957
Adom. our motto is we save lives. they told me, of course,
00:21:50.957 --> 00:21:54.294
You know that premature babies, some of them cannot tolerate
00:21:54.294 --> 00:21:58.031
Formulas. they get a severe intestine disease that with
00:21:58.031 --> 00:22:01.535
Severe morbidity and sometimes mortality, say, okay, so this
00:22:01.535 --> 00:22:05.172
Thing is covered.
00:22:05.172 --> 00:22:06.239
>> we've established it saves lives, right? yeah.
00:22:06.239 --> 00:22:08.775
>> this was our regular life till october 7th. we provided
00:22:08.775 --> 00:22:13.380
Then about 160l of milk to all the premature units. and we're
00:22:13.380 --> 00:22:20.587
Happy with what we did. then october 7th started and we
00:22:20.587 --> 00:22:24.791
Started getting calls from mothers who lost their ability
00:22:24.791 --> 00:22:29.296
To breastfeed, especially among the kibbutzim and the meunim
00:22:29.296 --> 00:22:33.133
From two pilots who said, listen, i'm i'm there. i can't i
00:22:33.133 --> 00:22:37.838
Can't breastfeed my baby. can you help me? we got even a
00:22:37.838 --> 00:22:41.675
Doctor who was working here at shira camp, and she came back
00:22:41.675 --> 00:22:44.711
And said, after i come back home, i just can't. i just can't
00:22:44.711 --> 00:22:48.215
Breastfeed my baby. please help. we got a special permission from
00:22:48.215 --> 00:22:51.518
The ministry of health and we provided october and december,
00:22:51.518 --> 00:22:55.822
Two and a half of milk to what i call 35 war babies, which are
00:22:55.822 --> 00:23:01.595
All premature babies. so they deserve a big quantity. they
00:23:01.595 --> 00:23:04.097
Need big quantity. we were really taking our part, our
00:23:04.097 --> 00:23:08.969
Share in a life saving of these babies from another aspect of
00:23:08.969 --> 00:23:14.441
Bringing them milk.
00:23:14.441 --> 00:23:16.410
>> i don't know how it operates in other parts.
00:23:16.410 --> 00:23:18.812
>> of the world, but.
00:23:18.812 --> 00:23:19.980
>> the fact that you're a volunteer based organization.
00:23:19.980 --> 00:23:22.682
>> or predominantly.
00:23:22.682 --> 00:23:23.884
>> volunteer based, that relies on the public participating in
00:23:23.984 --> 00:23:26.820
All your.
00:23:26.820 --> 00:23:28.088
>> programs, you think it's nice on a regular day, but when you
00:23:28.088 --> 00:23:32.092
Live the year we've just.
00:23:32.092 --> 00:23:33.627
>> had.
00:23:33.627 --> 00:23:34.861
>> which has been never ending, essentially war and pressure on
00:23:34.961 --> 00:23:37.764
The on the population, you just see how valuable that is, both
00:23:37.764 --> 00:23:41.268
On the relational side, that people get to contribute to
00:23:41.268 --> 00:23:43.703
Something that's.
00:23:43.703 --> 00:23:44.538
>> meaningful.
00:23:44.538 --> 00:23:44.938
>> but also.
00:23:44.938 --> 00:23:45.806
>> that you're able to really help people.
00:23:45.906 --> 00:23:47.774
>> wherever they are in this time of emergency. i think it's.
00:23:47.774 --> 00:23:51.678
>> beautiful when i think about myself and i think about all the
00:23:51.678 --> 00:23:54.281
Workers that we have, we have close to 300 workers in the
00:23:54.281 --> 00:23:57.851
Blood services. the fact that you wake up every day and you
00:23:57.851 --> 00:24:02.222
Get up to save lives, this is your mission. you don't do other
00:24:02.222 --> 00:24:05.459
Things. this is your mission. the fact that you need others to
00:24:05.459 --> 00:24:09.296
Help you to do that, you need, as you say, milk donors. you
00:24:09.296 --> 00:24:13.633
Need the blood from the blood donors. you need to be very,
00:24:13.633 --> 00:24:16.870
Very sensitive to your donors. and you also need to be very
00:24:16.870 --> 00:24:22.576
Sensitive to your donors who actually provide you with the
00:24:22.576 --> 00:24:25.312
Philanthropic support, because they also do things that they
00:24:25.312 --> 00:24:28.682
Don't have to do. they want to do it. and i think, as i said,
00:24:28.682 --> 00:24:32.719
That it makes us different people. it makes us achieve
00:24:32.719 --> 00:24:36.056
Something very important, which is taking part in what happens
00:24:36.056 --> 00:24:40.660
In israel.
00:24:40.660 --> 00:24:42.195
>> we're sitting in a brand.
00:24:42.195 --> 00:24:43.797
>> new building in a beautiful complex. you look at every
00:24:43.797 --> 00:24:47.300
Building with the mada logo on it. there's another name on it.
00:24:47.300 --> 00:24:50.737
It's the name of someone that donated to make this blood bank
00:24:50.737 --> 00:24:54.374
And this building and the ambulances, countless of them,
00:24:54.374 --> 00:24:57.077
And the scooters and the jeeps and the boats and all of it. to
00:24:57.077 --> 00:25:00.380
Make that possible, there are many things you can donate money
00:25:00.380 --> 00:25:03.216
To, but if you imagine what really makes a difference, what
00:25:03.216 --> 00:25:06.052
Really saves a life here in israel, especially in this time,
00:25:06.052 --> 00:25:10.123
That's a very meaningful way for people outside of this country
00:25:10.123 --> 00:25:12.592
To get involved in what happens here.
00:25:12.592 --> 00:25:14.794
>> one of my jobs is also to meet with donors, and for me to
00:25:14.794 --> 00:25:20.066
Actually translate the name that we have on the wall to face to a
00:25:20.066 --> 00:25:25.639
Family, to know what brought them to be donors, to host them
00:25:25.639 --> 00:25:30.644
When they come to israel, to work with them. i always tell
00:25:30.644 --> 00:25:34.180
Them, it's not that you donated and we used it and that's it.
00:25:34.180 --> 00:25:37.617
No, we are always together. we are always linked together. we
00:25:37.617 --> 00:25:40.287
Always work shoulder to shoulde. when you are a donor, you could
00:25:40.287 --> 00:25:45.759
See immediately what you have donated for and you can see your
00:25:45.759 --> 00:25:49.629
Name on an ambulance running in the street. you can get reports
00:25:49.629 --> 00:25:52.766
From us of what your ambulance has done, how many deliveries of
00:25:52.766 --> 00:25:56.870
Babies, how many wounded patients, how many lives were
00:25:56.870 --> 00:25:59.839
Saved by each ambulance or each medic cycle, or each or the
00:25:59.839 --> 00:26:04.177
Helicopters or the boat on the kinneret lake. all of those
00:26:04.177 --> 00:26:07.347
Really participate in life saving. we can only do in israel
00:26:07.347 --> 00:26:11.284
What we do in the whole organization because of your
00:26:11.284 --> 00:26:15.188
Support, because we couldn't do it other way in the way we want
00:26:15.188 --> 00:26:19.192
To do it, and we know how to do it without the support. and i
00:26:19.192 --> 00:26:22.662
Can't really thank them enough, as i can't really thank all our
00:26:22.662 --> 00:26:25.999
Other donors enough for what they do. so if i were sitting
00:26:25.999 --> 00:26:30.971
Somewhere out of israel and i was looking objectively at
00:26:30.971 --> 00:26:34.741
What's happening here and seeing the reaction of the world and
00:26:34.741 --> 00:26:39.679
Saying, well, what can i do? this is the right, fantastic way
00:26:39.679 --> 00:26:43.583
To do it. help us do what we do.
00:26:43.583 --> 00:26:47.020
>> thank you, professor o.lachenaud.
00:26:47.020 --> 00:26:48.655

>> be here with you.
00:26:50.457 --> 00:26:51.691
