Shimon Alfasi, owner of a tactical equipment chain, arrived at the Samaria community of Havat Gilad with tens of thousands of shekels in gear, following the recent attack and wildfire. 'I need to thank them – not they me,' he said in an interview with Channel 14.
The donation comes as the Havat Gilad community continues to recover. As The Zioneer reported, a wildfire in July destroyed dozens of homes in the Samaria community, and a shooting attack occurred nearby days later. Shimon Alfasi, owner of a tactical equipment chain, told Channel 14 that bringing the supplies was a natural response: 'I need to thank them – not they me.' The gesture reflects the broader wave of public solidarity that has swept the community since the fire.
