Israel on Wednesday said it was switching some missile production lines to ventilators making in efforts to counteract national shortages of the medical equipment used to treat COVID-19 patients.

The Defence Ministry, who disclosed this in a statement Tel Aviv, said the production line for the ventilators was inaugurated in the Israel Aerospace Industries’ classified missile production department.

According to the Defence Minister, Naftali Bennett, Israel must develop independent capabilities in everything related to dealing with the COVID-19 virus pandemic.The initiative is a joint effort between the ministry, the IAI and Israeli Medical Technology Company, Inovytec. The first 30 ventilators produced have already been delivered to the Health Ministry but it did not state how many ventilators were set to be produced each day by the facilities.

Shortages of the respiratory devices have been reported worldwide, and the production lines face challenges in the international supply chain, and record demand and difficulty purchasing components. The converted production lines had been used in the production of advanced defence systems such as the Arrow 2 and 3 weapon systems, as well as advanced satellite systems, among other high-tech equipment.

The world I pray to see. Converting a life destroying laboratory to a life saving laboratory. I just want to point it to you that the violence rate in the world has drastically reduced, nations not going to war with another. We fight one common enemy and peace was restored.Lovely

Why not the missiles come to the rescue. The outcome of the COVID 19 has exposed human poor reasoning. We were busy producing instruments of aggression while loosing guard on humanity . A very big lesson, if only we are going to learn .

May God bless Isreal.
