121: Wartime Diaries - Hai Ashkenazi

Israel Story

53-year-old Hai Ashkenazi from Tel Aviv is an archeologist, but never imagined he would find himself excavating a 21st-century Kibbutz. Yet in the insane reality that has become our life since October 7th, archeologists too are part of the war effort, and the term “destruction layer” has accrued a contemporary and chilling meaning.

The end song is She'eriot shel Hachaim ("Residue of Life") by The Idan Raichel Project.
