103FM radio presenter Arel Segal hosted today (Monday) for a joint presentation the correspondent of ‘News 13’ in the south, Almog Booker, who commented on the development of the difficult and ongoing campaign in Gaza, which broke out on October 7 and marked its 164th day. Booker, a resident of Zikim, shared the revelation Note that his family has not yet returned to their home in the kibbutz.
According to him, “We have not returned. We are completely in the middle of the war. Once because the abductees are still there and a second time because we have not returned home. These days are the most difficult – this is the fifth time I have moved my children. They want to return home, and I tell them ‘ No. I once said that the residents of the Otaf are the image of victory for the State of Israel, but I am no longer ready to be the image of victory. For me, the image of victory is the destruction of Hamas.”
He later shared that “even though the IDF is inside and even though there is less rocket fire, I don’t feel that the place is still safe for my children. When I sleep in bedbugs, at least twice a week, I see that there is a war going on all the time. It’s living under explosions and the constant threat that there could be gunfire. I don’t know what will happen in two months, but in the meantime no one can assure me that my children can walk around the kibbutz in complete safety, and I can go to work with peace of mind.”
