Israel Oaks Featured on Israeli TV

By Ezra Barnea | February 20, 2021

I'd like to share with the IOS community a video recently aired on Israeli television. Alon Issashar is an Israeli filmmaker and nature lover. He created, together with a great team, a short video for KAN (Israel Public Broadcast Company) which delves into the story of the past, present, and future of the Israeli oak trees. We have added English subtitles to be able to share this with oak enthusiasts around the world.
