Haim Yelin, a resident of Be'eri and former Knesset member, expressed deep disappointment in an interview with Radio 103FM regarding the government's policy in Gaza. Yelin said he trusts the army with his eyes closed, but cannot trust those who give orders to the army, because the policy keeps changing. He wondered why it is so hard to admit a mistake, noting that this undermines the ability to build a sense of security in affected communities. Yelin also referred to the observers' testimonies, which he said make him feel very bad. Later, he spoke about the resilience of Kibbutz Be'eri, using metaphors about bicycles and agriculture, and said that despite the pain, they will continue to cultivate the fields. He recounted the launch of hot air balloons last Friday and expressed hope that the Gaza envelope will rise.
