Alon Davidi is the mayor of Sderot — a city less than a kilometer from Gaza that has served as Israel’s shield, absorbing years of rocket fire and protecting the center of the country. In this episode, he reflects on the responsibility of leading such a significant and vulnerable place, the commitment he feels to every resident, and the love he has for a community that continues to show extraordinary resilience. We talk about his personal experience on October 7th, how those events reshaped his trust in the army and the government, and what it truly means to make decisions when your city is the buffer between Israel and its enemies. This conversation reveals the human side of a leader navigating war, loyalty, loss, and the weight of protecting people who look to him every single day. 👉 Subscribe, like, and follow for more meaningful conversations.
