ARC Israel Updates

Day 186

Chaim begins by saying he wants to talk about the October 7th Hamas attack on Reim, an Israeli community close to the border with Gaza. He admits that 50 years to the day after the surprise attack that started the Yom Kippur War, Israel simply wasn’t ready for this attack.

Chaim visits Reim six months later and he shows scenes from the gymnasium where there was a fierce battle between the Hamas Nukba force and the IDF. There are bullet holes and battle damage all over the building. Chaim talks about how four Israeli Beduin men fought back against the Hamas onslaught.

But the Hamas attack was so brutal and overwhelming it destroyed these communities. There were many atrocities, which the Hamas terrorists themselves filmed. Other security cameras also recorded images of atrocities, adding to the testimony of survivors and even perpetrators who were later arrested and interrogated.

But Chaim has been close to Reim for much of the time he was serving in the IDF reserves over the past six months and he has seen and recorded videos of many things that he wanted to show his viewers so they can get a better understanding of the situation.

The video concludes with another IDF soldier thanking the Aliyah Return Center for donating a bullet proof vest to keep him safe in the war zone.

(Day 596) Swords of Iron – “Trudging on as Shavuot (Pentecost) approaches”

Chaim starts by saying that he’s preparing to attend the funeral of Yaron Lischinsky, 30, and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, 26, two young Israelis diplomats who were murdered in Washington DC by a Pro-Palestinian terrorist last week. Israeli diplomatic missions around the world have increased their security and they are also flying their flags at half mast this week, even as some American officials including US Representative Ilan Omar of Minnesota coldly declined to comment on the attack.

(Day 595) Swords of Iron – “Devastated”

Chaim starts by talking about how difficult Israel’s situation remains, since there are ballistic missiles being fired at Israel by the Houthis in Yemen and ongoing fighting in Gaza and elsewhere.

(Day 594) Swords of Iron – “Brainwash”

Chaim starts out by saying how devastated he is at the news that Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, two staff members at the Israeli Embassy in Washington DC, were murdered by a pro-Palestinian terrorist in Washington DC on Thursday. Yaron is the son of a well-known tour guide here in Israel, and his family is part of Israel’s Believer community.

(Day 593) Swords of Iron – “Hellbent on Israel’s Destruction”

Chaim starts out by saying that big things are in the offing as China has told all its citizens in Israel to leave the country immediately, as nuclear talks between the US and Iran appear to be breaking down. Israel is determined not to allow Iran to get nuclear weapons and Iran shows no signs of backing down. There is a real chance that full-scale war between Iran and Israel is about to break out.
