Hakol Chai Enters the West Bank
to Rescue Abandoned Animals

After Gaza, our rescue of abandoned animals continues in the West Bank

Our mobile clinic enters a danger zone

August 29, 2005: Today, our rescue team entered the West Bank settlements of Sanur and Homesh, the first rescuers to arrive since the evacuations. The area has now become dangerous, and there is shooting on the road. When we drew near to the settlements, the soldiers guarding us detected what appeared to be a bomb on the road just ahead. For two hours, the Army experts carefully dismantled the object, ultimately determining it to be a cleverly designed replica of a bomb, but only a replica.

For the rest of the day, we worked to trap abandoned and feral cats. Though the terrain was difficult, the team persisted.
