Since October 7th, most of the world’s focus has been on the south of Israel, on Gaza and the communities nearby.
But there’s another part of Israel that’s been living under threat: the north.
Cities like Kiryat Shmona have been nearly forgotten in the headlines, but their story is just as intense.

Once things quieted down a bit, I knew I had to go.

I needed to understand what went into the decisions people made.
Why did some families stay in their homes, despite the rockets and the fear?
Why did others, including entire institutions, pack up and leave?

Was it more courageous to hold your ground during a war, or to walk away from everything you’ve built?

That’s what we explore in this episode:
The quiet bravery of those who left.
