ANNOUNCER (VOICE OVER)<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n In those days leading up to the declaration of <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>independence of the State of Judea, many soldiers <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>from families living in Judea and Samaria woke up <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>and deserted the IDF with their weapons and <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>equipment.

Seated in his cockpit, the parachute canopy above him, he soars slowly above barren hills. Here and there, faint groves are visible. In the distance, the twinkling lights of Israeli settlements in white and orange, like jewels, can be seen. Yehuda crosses the border and glides above the industrial area of Kfar Qasim. He passes over several massive industrial buildings until he spots the glowing orange light of the jeep waiting below. The flickering light of a flashlight signals that his friend Yusuf is waiting for him down there. Yehuda descends a few meters from the jeep.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ANNOUNCER (VOICE OVER) In those days leading up to the declaration of independence of the State of Judea, many soldiers from families living in Judea and Samaria woke up and deserted the IDF with their weapons and equipment.
