Yasam

Yasam is a specialized rapid response unit of the Israeli Police that deploys in urban areas to handle emergencies and security situations. The unit uses motorcycles and modern equipment to maintain mobility in densely populated neighborhoods across the country.

Yasam was established in 1990 as a specialized response unit and has become central to urban policing operations across Israel. The unit gained prominence through its involvement in major security operations and evacuations over the past decades.

Officers from Yasam maintain order at significant locations such as the Western Wall, managing interactions between different religious and social groups.

Visitors will observe Yasam officers on motorcycles in busy neighborhoods and at significant locations throughout urban areas. Their presence is part of the daily security landscape in Tel Aviv and other city centers.

Members of Yasam come from IDF and Border Police special forces backgrounds, wearing grey uniforms with black caps displaying their unit insignia.
