President Isaac Herzog visited reserve battalions in the Gaza Strip Envelope, when he awarded them with ranks, signed on a bomb and spoke to the soldiers: "Be healthy, complete your tasks and return home safely."

In a meeting with reservists at the northern border, Gallant said that he is aware that the reservist needs not only care, but also abilities - for his family, for social security, for education, employment, business, and of course for studies.

Nineteen members of the Knesset, led by Limor Son Har-Melech, turned to the Minister of Labor with a letter in which they requested, "Extend maternity leave for soldiers' wives immediately."
