International Search and Rescue Teams

International Search and Rescue (ISAR) Teams are specialized groups of trained professionals and equipment that respond across borders to emergency situations like earthquakes, building collapses, or natural disasters. They work together quickly to locate, extricate, and assist victims, often operating in complex or hazardous environments. These teams are typically composed of firefighters, engineers, medical personnel, and rescue technicians, who coordinate with local authorities and other international agencies. Their goal is to save lives efficiently and effectively, providing expertise and resources in regions affected by disasters beyond their home countries.
