    PM Netanyahu spoke this evening with Israel's Ambassador to Mexico Yoni Peled and the commander of the IDF rescue unit Dudi Mizrahi.  The two updated the PM on the rescue activities of the Israeli rescue teams, who are playing key roles in the rescue effort.
     Wishing them a Shana Tova (Happy New Year) PM Netanyahu said "You are performing a great Mitzva (positive commandment).  You are bringing the light of Israel to the world, a great light.  This is important for purely humanitarian reasons but also so that people can see the true Israel.  You are bringing great pride to the State of Israel.  Continue the great work and come home in peace.  Shana Tova.”
