The picture was from 2010, with the Arabic text next to it explaining the details of the Givati Brigade and its various subdivisions. The picture made its way to Givati's Maimon unit, who have decided to reenact the same photo, 13 years later.
"As soon as we saw the picture, we knew we had to reenact it," said a Givati soldier. "We weren't scared seeing our picture there. Quite the opposite. It's how we can show them we're a strong team, that comes back to Gaza all these years later to finish the job."
Another soldier said: "We were here during Operation Protective Edge, and now we're back for a new mission - to protect our home."
