My story with Mahmoud and his wife:
How I came to interact with the Khalils in the first place in October, 2023, and the lesson I take from that time.

I'm an Israeli Olympic athlete who pilots the Bobsled team... Image In the days following 10/7 it became clear that my team would be called to fight in Gaza while I, an immigrant who never had the honor of serving prior, would not.
