Shuki Salomon and Itzik Ohana Deliver Hot Meals to Haredi Soldiers on Lebanon Border

Shuki Salomon and Itzik Ohana recently provided hot meals to fighters of the Haredi 'Hashmonaim' Brigade stationed along the Lebanon border. On the last Friday evening before Shabbat, the two delivered warm, high-quality food from Motis restaurants to the soldiers, aiming to support thousands of troops every week. Both Salomon, a social media influencer and community activist, and Ohana, a journalist with Kikar HaShabbat and founder of the 'B’Zchut Ahavat Chinam Nintza' association, emphasized the importance of offering both physical and spiritual support to these soldiers.

The 'Hashmonaim' Brigade, composed largely of former yeshiva students, operates in the northern front as part of Israel's defense forces. They maintain a balance between active military service and adherence to religious lifestyle, making initiatives like this crucial for preserving their spiritual connection during deployment. This meal distribution is part of a broader effort by the association to strengthen unity and morale within the Israeli community during challenging times.

Salomon and Ohana have committed to continuing this effort every Friday, ensuring that Haredi soldiers receive warm meals for Shabbat. Their work highlights the intersection of community support and military service among religious soldiers serving on the front lines.
