Following the stormy weather and snow that fell in the Golan Heights, several roads in the Golan Heights were closed yesterday out of fear for the safety of road users.

However, the traffic department's control center received a report of vehicles stuck on a blocked road, including a bus carrying forty tourists.

Golan station police officers with the assistance of the jeep unit assisted the joint evacuation unit in rescuing the passengers to a safe place.

In total, 5 rescue teams were rushed to the scene and rescued and towed 13 vehicles.

The assistance was extremely necessary as the bus slid to the side of the road and went into a state of side slope into a ditch next to the road.

Because of this, there was a fear of its overturning.

The policemen and the jeep unit rescued the bus passengers to Kibbutz al-Rum.
