Event Details

Description

On October 7, 2023, Dr. Yair Ansbacher, a special forces reservist, strategist, and IDF researcher, was among the first IDF personnel to arrive at the Gaza border, confronting the very threat he had warned about five years earlier.

During what he describes as the "longest day of his life," he fought Hamas terrorists and took part in the battle to free Kibbutz Nir Yitzchak.

Now, hear his firsthand account as Yair shares the untold miracles of October 7, lessons of survival, and his vision for Israel’s future.
