He is still talking and machine gun fire is fired at the Land Rover's engine without warning. Apparently the attackers just want to stop the convoy. Suddenly, Yehoshua cries out as he is hit and his hand grabs his knee.
When he raises his hand he sees that his fingers are full of blood. With the rest of his strength, Yehoshua stops the vehicle from sliding into the ditch on the side of the road and then he collapses and loses consciousness at the wheel. Eliran hurries to take the weapon stuck between the front seats of the Land Rover and holds it in her hands, scared.
Several dozen IDF soldiers suddenly appear across the road and approach them.
IDF soldier
Hands up!
Eli and his family, Itamar and the two girls slowly get out of the vehicles, their hands raised.
The Qatari flag flying over the Land Rover and the second flag spread over the hood of the Toyota pickup make the soldiers suspicious.
ELI
We are Israelis! We escaped from the center!
ISRAELI OFFICER
My name is Benny. Where did you come from?
ELI
We arrived through Tze'elim.
Seeing Benny looking at Mordechai Anilevich's statue, he explains.
