Since the beginning of the war, Israeli singer Omer Adam has turned his house into a support station for soldiers and displaced people. Now, he decided to help the country’s security forces in an additional way by funding cab rides to take soldiers home.
"During these challenging times, it's important to offer as much help as possible,” he wrote on Instagram. “We have been working tirelessly day and night to provide you with essential support. Now, we want to take you to the most important place surrounded by your loved ones - home."
The challenge of public transportation
The singer was concerned with the difficulties faced by soldiers on leave to reach home by public transportation.
"I woke up with the idea of arranging special taxis to transport soldiers to their homes so they don't have to face any inconvenience,” he said. “They deserve a smooth journey back home."
To ensure the success of the project, Adam offered a substantial donation.
"You have shown me immense respect throughout the years, and now it's my turn to show you the same," he said.
