Every mission, every life saved, and every soldier protected depends on more than bravery—it depends on specialized tactical innovation.
From K9 harnesses and tactical eyewear to advanced medical kits and winter-ready gear, Make A Difference Foundation continues to deliver the tools that keep Israel’s defenders safe and effective in the field.
These aren’t luxuries—they’re life-saving essentials that improve visibility, endurance, and survival on the front lines.
Israel’s Northern War Isn’t OverIsrael’s fight up north is active on two fronts: inside Lebanon against Hezbollah and across the border in southern Syria against Iran-backed networks. In Lebanon, the IDF is still hunting terror infrastructure and striking deep—hitting a Hezbollah training compound and a precision-missile facility in the Beqaa after fresh intel flagged operatives gearing up for attacks. The army also eliminated a Radwan platoon commander tied to weapons transfers and planned raids on Israeli communities. On the ground, Israeli troops remain deployed across parts of southern Lebanon. The military has set roadblocks and kept control in key corridors while Lebanon and UNIFIL struggle to meet ceasefire terms—moves Jerusalem frames as necessary to stop Hezbollah from rebuilding along the Blue Line. Entire border belts where Radwan dug in are being cleared, with UN patrols reporting weapons caches in abandoned structures.
In Syria, Israeli forces are holding the summit of Mount Hermon and nearby positions to prevent hostile militias from massing opposite the Golan and to shield Druze communities below. The IDF has also been running short, surgical raids in Quneitra and the Damascus countryside—seizing weapons, questioning smugglers and landing on former regime air-defense sites as part of a broader campaign to break Iran’s supply lines. This is a containment fight: deny Hezbollah precision missiles, block cross-border infiltrations, and keep Iranian arms from flowing west. Until Beirut actually disarms Hezbollah and Syria stops serving as a weapons bridge, expect Israel to keep striking—and to keep troops in the field to protect the north. |
Urgent Appeal from Commander Ela – All-Female Platoon
Deep in Gaza and the North, Commander Ela and her all-female platoon have been serving for two years, gathering vital intelligence. Their message is both humble and powerful:
“We special women have been here in the army reserves two years in the field gathering intelligence.”
“Thank you to our donors from all over the world, you are appreciated and we feel you right next to us—everything you give us is cherished.”
“Every bit of hot food, warm clothes to wear in the cold winter so we can accomplish our mission is appreciated.”
“Thank you very much. We love you guys.”
Our next mission is clear: Provide hot food and warm winter clothing to these courageous women serving in freezing field conditions.
Special Thanks
This week, we extend heartfelt thanks to Barak Greenblatt from Arizona, who hand-delivered Protective Goggles from Arizona to Jerusalem—personally placing them into the hands of one of our MADF members who has served over 350 days on the front lines in the South.
“The protective goggles were very much needed and appreciated!”
Thank you, Barak. Your generosity and action remind us that every delivery is a difference made.
Take Action for Israel
Please take a moment to sign the petition supporting Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch. He needs 250,000 signatures to be effective in replacing UNRWA and ensuring accountability at the UN.
Your voice matters. Together, we stand for truth, safety, and justice.
From cutting-edge tactical innovation to warm meals and winter gear, Make A Difference Foundation remains committed to protecting and uplifting those who protect Israel.
With gratitude,
