Israel teen trips operate under strict safety and security standards set in accordance
with the Israel' Defense Force's Homefront Command guidelines.
​
These guidelines include:
-
geographical travel boundaries
-
limiting groups from traveling within a 40km range of the Gaza Strip
-
or a 20km range of the Lebanese border
-
exact protocols of how to operate during the sound of a siren
-
personal safety guidelines and more.
Each Teen Israel tour group is accompanied by a well-trained
armed security guard (who is also a trained first responder).
Every day, Teen Israel touring itineraries are coordinated with and approved by
an especially created "Situation Monitoring Taskforce" - a collaboration of Israel's
security agencies, the IDF, Israel Police and local law enforcement authorities.
