Brigadier General (res.) Oren Solomon is an October 7 hero. On the morning of the massacre, he left his home in the Gaza envelope with his son, not as a deployed unit but as a father and a fighter. They reached the Nova music festival area and Highway 232 and fought Hamas terrorists face to face for hours. With a handful of police officers they delayed the assault, blocked routes, evacuated civilians under fire, and helped save lives while the official army’s response was hours away. Solomon does not speak in slogans. He describes what he saw, what he did, and what the official story left out.
