“You are too busy focusing on the mission and your team to even miss home – you don’t have that luxury.”

Even before Yonatan was called up for reserve duty on Oct. 7, he rushed to join his unit in southern Israel. Yonatan was wounded in combat and is now recuperating at home in Tel Aviv. He is looking forward to resuming his TAU studies.

“My goal is to become an R&D scientist in energy applications,” he says.

Help Yonatan and other TAU reservist students overcome challenges, return to studies worry-free, and fulfill their true calling.
