On Friday 12.01.2007, 6 months to the date of the kidnapping of Udi Goldwasser and Eldad Regev and 201 days since the kidnapping of Gilad Schalit. Six months during which the families didn't know for sure the fate of their sons.

To mark this date, the families, friends and many citizens of Israel drove in a long convoy through Jerusalem, Tel-Aviv, Haifa, Nahariya and Mizpe Hilla up until the northern border near Zar'it, where Udi and Eldad were kidnapped.
More than a thousand people participated in the rally and joined the convoy.

In Zar'it, the main rally was held and friends from Udi and Eldad's army units and representatives of the families spoke. After the rally, part of the audience continued marching to the same spot where Udi and Eldad were kidnapped
.

The friends from the army shared their personal stories from the day of the kidnapping and their experiences during the Second Lebanon War.

 

The event's slogan resonated, "Do Not Let Apathy Kill Them!"

 

We thank those who participated in the "Journey to Freedom" and pray for the release
of the boys!
