Greater Sudbury Police Chief Ian Davidson and other police leaders are on a historic five-day mission to Israel.

The trip will provide them with opportunities to explore Israeli police procedures, obtain information on anti-terrorism and security matters and meet with
senior police and IDF officials and Palestinian Police officials, says a statement from the Greater Sudbury Police Service.

The mission is a co-operative effort lead by the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police, the government of Ontario and the Canadian Jewish Congress, Ontario Region.

Davidson says the mission provides him with an opportunity to see the latest law enforcement innovations in Israel which could be applied to policing in our community.

?It?s important that we, as police leaders, learn from colleagues in other parts of the world and apply what we learn to make our communities safer,? he
said.

Davidson will return March 8.
