In this powerful episode, we sit down with Levi, who was born and raised in the Netherlands, unaware of his Jewish roots until the age of 17. What began as a personal discovery quickly became a life-changing journey: he embraced his Jewish identity, made aliyah to Israel, and joined a combat unit in the IDF. Today, Levi continues to serve as a reservist on the frontlines in Gaza, while also actively advocating for the rights of lone soldiers and Israeli reservists in the Knesset.
