While talking with one of the members of the group, he found that the hikers are found about 3km into the depth of an active fire zone of the Golani brigade.
In response to the question of the commander of the rescue unit why they entered the fire zone, the avreichim answered: "A friend of ours said that they don't shoot here".
Lavi instructed them how to get out of the fire zone, while in the meantime he informed the officer of Zaka-north, Hezki Farkash, who updated the relevant factors about what was happening so that they could instruct to discontinue the training in the area, so that the hikers would not be hurt.
