Tracking the movements of birds of prey helps ecologist uncover sites of Israeli casualties

The Israeli Army has enlisted the help of an ecologist to locate the bodies of those killed in a recent attack by Hamas. Ohad Hatzofe, from Israel's Nature and Parks Authority, tracks the migratory patterns of birds using GPS tracking devices. His data helped to locate four corpses after he was approached for assistance. Another bird also identified a few other areas of interest. Hatzofe examines the movements of the birds and shares relevant information with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), who found the bodies. Despite his efforts, Hatzofe is still living with uncertainty as his friend, Ohad Yahalomi, and Yahalomi's 12-year-old child are still missing after their home was attacked by Hamas. Hatzofe hopes to join the search in person and expresses his sadness at the situation. He also emphasizes the importance of unity in times of war and the need for the conflict to end soon.
