Officers from the Yamam, Israel's National Counter Terror Unit, were summoned on Wednesday evening to a residential building in Ramat Gan, after a man threatened to commit suicide by jumping from the 19th floor of the building.

As some of the officers held conversations with the man in an attempt to distract him, other officers surprised the man from inside the apartment and caught him on the balcony so he wouldn't jump off it.At the same time, other officers from the unit descended from a balcony on a higher floor using ropes.
