Incredible moment!
A Muslim IDF combat soldier from the Bedouin battalion arrived at Tel Hashomer hospital to pray for the IDF combat soldier Itzik Saidian.
He said: "We came to strengthen and pray for the recovery of Itzik, the dear combat soldier".
Itzik suffers from serious PTSD after serving in a combat unit in the IDF and going through extremely traumatic events from the 2014 Gaza war he was in. A few months ago, Itzik set himself on fire in protest of how the Ministry of Defence deals with soldiers who suffer from PTSD. He was burnt so badly he almost died and was given 2 days to live. He has since regain consciousness and is able to speak.
The support given by Israelis, whether Jewish or Arab has been incredible!
Refuah Shleima.
I have posted about other IDF soldiers before who suffer from PTSD, such as Ido Gal Razon and Dekel Markovitch here: https://www.facebook.com/ugobey/posts/10162136053455441
