Israeli singer Omer Adam shared a personal reflection on the October 7th Hamas attacks, stating that "not many people can truly understand" the feeling of having one's territory invaded. He posted a message on Instagram, accompanied by a video of himself visiting IDF bases during the war to boost soldiers' morale.

Adam explained his choice of the video, saying he preferred to use it rather than the "horrific images" many people have on their phones. He expressed his desire to salute the "heroic soldiers" and the Israeli people, highlighting their resilience and mutual support. He also extended condolences to the bereaved families, saying their loved ones are no longer with them, and wished for their memory to be avenged. Additionally, he offered strength to the survivors who returned home after experiencing the "terrible experience."

In his message, Adam recalled scrolling through his phone's gallery and going back three years to the "atrocities." He described the feeling of invasion, of being taken or having family members taken from homes, beds, or streets during firefights, and being transported to the "worst place in the world, Hamas tunnels." He concluded by wishing for only good news ahead and reiterated his participation in the grief of the bereaved families.
