Hundreds of thousands of Israelis have been called up to reserve duty. But what about the families they leave behind? Ariel Markose, a mother of four, shares her perspective on the challenges of protecting the home front.

Everything in this corner of the world has changed since Saturday, October 7. All around us, friends, family, colleagues, people have died. People are missing. People have been kidnapped. There’s a lot of uncertainty and we’re all involved in dozens of initiatives but we’re also going to bring you some voices and testimonies that try to paint a picture of these devastating times.
