A wounded IDF soldier and his Arab doctor find solace and unity through music, sharing a heartfelt rendition of Umm Kulthum’s “Inta Omri” at Ashkelon’s Barzilai Medical Center.

In a remarkable display of unity and resilience, an IDF soldier, despite enduring serious wounds on the battlefield in Gaza, showcased the extraordinary power of music to bridge divides.

Captured on film, he harmoniously played a touching rendition of Umm Kulthum’s “Inta Omri” alongside the Arab doctor from Ashkelon’s Barzilai Medical Center, who had tirelessly tended to him for the past week.

An uplifting and inspiring moment amidst the challenges of these times.
