• Karem Shalom kibbutz

    November 27, 2024 in Israel ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    If you look on a map this kibbutz is 200ft from Gaza and 0.5 km from Egypt. This area is closed, due to the attacks it is largely controlled by the military. A few select families were able to come back. We managed to get an invitation to this area. Yair was our tour guide, he is an police explosive expert. He told the us the story of the kibbutz and his story being one of the first responders. He and others fought off the terrorists but he also was severely injured in his arm and hip. I recorded the audio of his experience, I have still pictures that correspond to the audio. I will post the audio when I return. As an example one of the miracles is you will see a bunker door that was exploded open ...the mezuzah, that has been removed, was undamaged despite blast damage right next to it.

    You can see Gaza through the cement portal.
