IAF performs flyover above hospitals in Independence Day nod to medical staff

Israel’s Air Force is performing flyovers above hospitals across the country in an Independence Day to salute to the medical staff on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Doctors and nurses were spectators to the popular and iconic feature of celebrations that were largely canceled this year to prevent people from gathering to watch the jets and other aircraft zoom by.
