    On October 7th, defying his commander's orders, Nimrod Palmach traveled south towards the border, where he faced and eliminated over 30 Hamas terrorists. Preventing the terrorists from entering Kibbutz Alumim as well as Kibbutz Be'eri, he saved hundreds of Jewish lives. Hailed a "hero" by many international news outlets, including Fox News USA, ABC News UK, CBN News, Sky News Australia, and the Jerusalem Post, Nimrod has rejoined as a reservist in the IDF during the current Gaza/Israel war.

    Talya Tomer is an Israeli social entrepreneur in community-based placemaking. As the spouse of a IDF reservist and mother of three ages 2, 6, 8, her personal experiences since October 7th have deeply influenced her recent projects.

She authored and spearheaded the publication and distribution of two children’s books, designed for the kids of reservists and those displaced from their homes.

    Mazal Tazazo, an Ethiopian Israeli woman who volunteers with at-risk youth, was forced to run once the terrorists infiltrated the Nova festival on October 7, 2023. One of the terrorists hit her in the head with his rifle, then dragged her across an open field. As she regained consciousness, she felt them tying her up with rope, straightening her legs and coming closer to her. As they reached toward her face, she played dead by holding her breath. They left her for dead in the field. By playing dead, she managed to survive.

     

    Remo Alhuziyel, a Bedouin police officer, was one of the first responders to arrive at the scene of the Nova festival. Remo was supposed to start his shift in security for the festival in Re'im at 6:30 a.m., but he was early for his shift and immediately got caught up in the fighting with Hamas terrorists. He rescued hundreds of people who were at the festival. _________________________________________________________________________________________
