Mission Brief is the official podcast of the Israel Defense Forces. Published once a week during the 2023 War on Hamas, each episode takes listeners behind the scenes of the IDF, speaking to the soldiers and officers that stand in defense of the state of Israel. It is, as of 2023, hosted by Major (reserves) Libby Weiss and is available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts

This week's episode of Mission Brief focuses on the incredible commitment of IDF reservists to the defense of the state of Israel, even years after concluding their mandatory service.

We host Alon and Sam, two reservists from the Paratroopers Brigade, who speak about their experience getting back in uniform and on the field. They share how their training prepared them for war, as well as the distinctly different atmospheres in Israel right now: that of civilian life and that among IDF ranks.
