Ethiopian-Israeli IDF soldiers received a pleasant and moving surprise on Independence Day this year, with relatives left behind in Ethiopia writing them letters marking the occasion. One letter reads, “Dear soldiers, you are sacrificing your lives for the people of Israel and your homeland. Another says, “You the soldiers, thanks to you there is independence for Israel. But only in the Golani Brigade.”“I wish all the people of Israel and all those waiting in the camps a happy Independence Day,” he added. “The young people who sent me the letter gave me the happiest Independence Day ever.”
