Shifron suffered from an open fracture in his left leg and underwent surgery. He currently has rehabilitation sessions three times a week. Due to his injury and treatments he hasn’t yet joined a delegation. With the financial assistance of Belev a Echad, Shifron recently bought a brand new brace. This brace provides comfort and support to his knee and enables full mobility. He was recently released from the IDF and is now studying for the psychometry exam. Shifron is looking forward to joining a flagship tour in the near future G-d willing! #belevechad #woundedwarriors #idfveterans #idf #israel #israeli #soldiers #heroes$

Yesterday, Belev Echad wounded veteran, Shai Hiti, gave a lecture about proper financial management. Shai served as a captain in the Combat Engineering special forces unit and was injured in 2015. After 3 weeks of rehabilitation he returned to the army and completed his service in 2018. Today, Shai runs a real estate investment firm in Florida. He focuses on recruitment of investors for properties his company builds in Florida. Shai shared some of his experience and taught fellow wounded Belev Echad soldiers how to properly manage financially. Something that is incredibly important to understand in general, and especially during the tough situation we are all currently facing. #belevechad #woundedwarriors #idfveterans #idf #israel #israeli #soldiers #heroes

“Hi everyone, I am Daniel, I’m a certified fitness instructor and a member of Belev Echad. I prepared some home exercises for you all since it is important to stay home right now. I love you all. You got this!”- Daniel Attias, Belev Echad Wounded Soldier Daniel served as a combat soldier in the Armored Corps. In October 2013, during training, a shell of a tank went off and started a fire while Daniel and fellow soldiers were inside the tank. Daniel suffered from burns to his legs, hands and face. After 2 months of treatment in the hospital, he went through a difficult rehabilitation process for almost two years and underwent many plastic operations. After recovery, sports became a major part of Daniel’s life. Daniel has prepared some simple at home workout videos to help start the week off with health and fitness! It is important to stay healthy during these times and with most of us at home, this is the perfect opportunity! #belevechad #woundedwarriors #idfveterans #idf #israel #israeli #soldiers #heroes

"Thank you very much for the opportunity to share my truth, as well as those I fought alongside during the war. I was really excited to meet the Jewish communities who welcomed us with warmth and love and care for us at a distance as well. Thank you to Chabad and the amazing Belev Echad.”- Yohai Sitbon, wounded Belev Echad veteran Yohai Sitbon joined Belev Echad’s Campus Tour of the West Coast last month. He was given the opportunity to share his story with Jewish university students in the US and taught them about all that he and IDF soldiers sacrifice in order to protect the Jewish state. Ever since his return to Israel, the world has been facing an extremely difficult situation. As the Coronavirus wreaks havoc, Yohai has found a way to give back to his people and help others. With many people being laid off and certain services having a high demand and need for staff, Yohai has created a perfect solution. He has created a Facebook group in Israel connecting thousands of laid off workers with human resources at companies hiring temporarily in services with high demand during the crisis. A simple action with a significant effect. Together, we will overcome these difficult times!#belevechad #woundedwarriors #idfveterans #idf #israel #israeli #soldiers #heroes

As we are all at home dealing with these difficult times, it’s important to remember that we are not alone. The whole world is going through this together. We are staying home to protect those around us. Although we must be distant physically, this is a perfect time to reconnect to both ourselves and our loved ones. Our Belev Echad Israel staff and wounded IDF veterans are staying close during quarantine and connecting over zoom. G-d willing this will all pass soon. Wishing health and happiness to all!
