When war broke out on Oct. 7th masses of reservists were called up and many more volunteered their services to fight for their land. An integral part of the IDF is Druze soldiers.
Druze is a secretive religion practiced by Arabs who live in Israel and fight hand in hand with Jewish and Christian soldiers alike in defense of the State of Israel.
This soldier was away from his family and home for 50 days fighting for the land and received a special welcome on his jubilant and safe return.
