Establishing a Land Rescue Unit for the Lebanese Civil Defense in Amchit

Following the establishment of the Marine Rescue Unit in 2023, MIF has launched a Land Rescue Unit in Amchit to complement its efforts and create a comprehensive emergency response system. MIF aimed to enhance safety and resilience by improving disaster preparedness and emergency response capabilities for land-based incidents, including fires and natural disasters, benefiting Amchit and surrounding areas. MIF also intended to create an integrated emergency response between the Marine and the Land Rescue Units, where they would have a unified approach to manage emergencies.

Through this project, MIF aimed to create a sustainable ecosystem that enhances local resilience and community engagement in emergency preparedness. Moreover, MIF also sought after the environmental and economic impact of this project. The presence of the civil defense Center in Amchit will boost environmental protection even further through disaster mitigation, and contribute to regional economic stability by protecting assets and attracting investments in the region.
