Druze rally for IDF, Alian
As demonstrations take place across the country Wednesday in support of IDF soldiers fighting in the Gaza Strip, residents of the Druze town of Daliat al-Carmel near Haifa take to the streets to show their appreciation for Israeli forces.
The demonstration was organized by the Druze Zionist Council, and included Israeli flag, signs, and donation stations for soldiers, NRG reports. Participants also expressed support for Col. Ghassan Alian, the commander of the Golani Brigade who returned to the front after being wounded. Alian hails from the Druze community.
Other demonstrations took place in Jerusalem’s Zion Square, Carmiel, and Kiryat Shmona.
