KFAR AZZA, Israel – Two former prime ministers, Boris Johnson of the U.K. and Scott Morrison of Australia, came to Israel recently on a solidarity visit and met with lone soldiers from Britain fighting for the Israel Defense Forces. They took part in a tour of the areas devastated by the Hamas October attack, organized by Israel’s former U.N. Ambassador, Danny Danon.
The two former leaders inspected communities along the Gaza border. Many of the soldiers with whom they met volunteered immediately after the Hamas massacre. Some of the Jewish soldiers told CBN News why they are fighting.

After seeing some of the locales, Boris Johnson noted, “People should be reminded of the full tragedy and horror and sadism of what happened on October the 7th.”
Johnson told the soldiers why he’s supporting Israel in the war with Hamas.
