This week, we bring you urgent voices and powerful moments straight from the battlefield.
Amitai, an elite IDF soldier from Unit 8106, shares:
We just completed a three-and-a-half month deployment in Jenin. Now, we’re preparing for our next mission.
Unfortunately, our equipment isn’t sufficient for combat. We lack bulletproof vests and tactical helmets of proper quality.
This is truly a matter of saving lives and helping soldiers in the field. We would be immensely grateful for your support.
Until the final victory. Thank you very much, Battalion 8106.
A MADF supporter reports:
“My cousin, Yair Lieberman, has been fighting in Gaza since the beginning of the war. Two weeks ago, he distributed protective gear provided through MADF to his unit. His gratitude—and his call for continued prayers for the IDF—are powerful reminders of why we do this work.”

On the Ground
Deep in Syria: IDF soldiers marked the completion of a fourth tour of duty—more than 400 days—by singing Hatikvah, Israel’s national anthem, in Assad Square. A moment of resilience and faith in the heart of enemy territory.
Members of the Make A Difference Foundation helped set up the loudspeakers under fire that broadcast Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu’s UN speech in Gaza.
This is what standing with Israel looks like—courage, commitment, and faith in the face of danger.
With gratitude,
