As released hostage Evyatar David came home to Kfar Saba earlier today, he was escorted by a group of United Hatzalah volunteer medics in their signature orange emergency vehicles.
David’s father, Avishai David, is a longtime volunteer paramedic with United Hatzalah, and continued with his volunteer work throughout the two years that his son was held captive in Gaza.
“To see my son free, home, and embraced by my brothers and sisters in orange, the very people who have stood by me for the past two years, is a source of strength and light for our family,” says David, who asked that his volunteer colleagues take part in his son’s escort from Rabin Medical Center. “Am Yisrael Chai!”
