On the eve of Tisha B'Av, Itamar Itam, an IDF soldier who was wounded by a sniper alongside his communications officer, reflected on a photograph taken from the sniper's scope that hit them. In his message, Itam wrote that the terrorist did not know who they were or whom they voted for — he only knew he was shooting at IDF soldiers, at Jews. Itam called for remembering that despite all disagreements and arguments, 'we are brothers.' The post was shared on the morning of Tisha B'Av, the Jewish day of mourning for the destruction of the Temples, which traditionally emphasizes themes of unity and reflection.
