Following a fatal incident in northern Israel where a 14-year-old boy was killed and dozens were injured by unexploded ordnance, the Israeli government has announced a NIS 1.2 million emergency campaign. The campaign, to be run by the Home Front Command, aims to raise public awareness about the dangers posed by scattered unexploded ordnance across the country as a result of the ongoing conflict. The initiative comes after the recent tragedy in the Ramim Ridge area, where the casualties occurred during a trip approved by the Ministry of Education. The advertising firm Gray Media, which has received approximately half of the Government Advertising Office's television advertising budget for 2024, was awarded the contract without a tender process.
