From our special correspondent in Israel – The Brothers and Sisters in Arms group was active in the street protests against Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu's controversial justice reforms that rocked Israel for months on end earlier this year. But after the Hamas attacks of October 7, this group of former soldiers pivoted from protesting to evacuating kibbutzim, distributing food and saving animals.
At a kibbutz in southern Israel, not far from Gaza, what used to be a collective farm has been transformed into a crisis management centre.
