He continued by emphasizing how his son had gone through numerous hardships but had arrived in Israel safely.
“Omer who finished his army service over a year ago was surfing in Nicaragua on October 7th when Hamas terrorists butchered over 1300 innocent Israelis 💔 without hesitating and despite many flight cancellations he found a way to get home to #Israel and was received at the airport this morning by his sister #Lia who is a soldier,” Gilad added.
