Israeli Voices: Who We Are - Episode One

In the Negev, a few kilometers from Israel’s border with Gaza,  many come to reflect, remember, mourn at memorials on Blood Road and at the Nova Music Festival. There and at kibbutzim nearby on October 7, 2023, Hamas military forces and Gazan militants began attacks that killed 1200 Israelis.In two of the attacked kibbutzim, Eyal, Nevo and their wives and children sheltered in their homes, the sounds of battle and massacre around them. They were rescued and evacuated by the Israeli Army.  Settled in another community, Nevo and his wife remain uncertain they will return to their restored kibbutz.  Eyal travels to his kibbutz from his temporary home to work and walk within sites and memories of the attack and the murdered. He and his wife and children await the day they’ll live there again and maybe, eventually, walk in peace from their home to the Gaza Strip and across to the Mediterranean Sea.
