Thursday, 4:00 p.m. The border area, after Kibbutz Nahal-Oz.
Everything is deserted around, there is not a living soul in the area. From time to time explosions are heard, the echoes of heavy artillery can be heard in the distance. Smoke rises from the outskirts of the Zeitoun neighborhood in the Gaza Strip.

4:30 p.m. More tanks and more tanks. Across the entire horizon, there are many tanks, helicopters in the air, missiles exploding in the background, and the tanks just rush in. I just pray that they will return safely.
5:00 p.m.
The echoes of the shells fired into enemy territory are thundering. Silence doesn't seem to be coming today. Heavy smoke is still rising from the outskirts of the neighborhood. There is no substantial change in the atmosphere around.
5:30 p.m.
""What are you doing here? You're not allowed to be here. This is a closed military area," the officer shouts, climbs onto the tank and rushes forward to continue the mission.
6:00 p.m.
The tanks are rushing at full speed. Heavy clouds of dust fill the air and lungs. The angle and the dust flatter the picture, but the man in the tank, while victorious, still suffers.
6:30 p.m.
In the picture, an advanced Model 4 Merkava, complete with first-class electronic systems, the best technology and brains are invested not only to be precise in hitting, but also to create a weapon of war that will protect the warrior sitting in it.

A bomb falling from the sky leaves a trail behind it. The target is somewhere in the Strip. It's probably not intended for people who have done good deeds. The air is dry, hot, and dusty. It's probably going to be harder in Gaza soon, when the bomb hits the ground.
20:00
It's getting dark, the announcements from the planes are scattering over the Strip. The rustling of papers, like the wings of a dove of peace, can be heard from afar. When will peace really come to the region, and are the soldiers forever destined to fight?
9:00 PM. Opposite the Gaza Strip border.
Gaza is dark, perfect order in the sky. Drones from all sides. Shells in one direction, helicopters in another, rockets being launched at us, and only Iron Dome creates synergy between our forces.
The lights rising from the direction of Gaza are somewhat reminiscent of the 'aurora' and create a spectacular display in the sky. The darkness in which the Gaza Strip is located allows the twinkling stars to be clearly seen from all sides.
10:00 PM.
Changing the angle of the photo, the moon also seems so low. Perhaps it is sad and shares the sorrow of those suffering on both sides. After all, it shines and is intended for the people of the entire world. Regardless of religion, race, or gender.
00:00
With talk of a ceasefire in the background, everything continues as usual, our soldier has another long night ahead of him.
Departure towards the center, a drive of about 45 minutes.
Passing by the city, everything seems peaceful and calm. A quietness created by the IDF's stubborn fighting on the front lines against murderous terrorism.
