While the events of October 7, 2023, may have pushed some Israelis and Palestinians apart, Maoz Inon and Aziz Abu Sarah say they've become like brothers. When Maoz lost his parents in the attacks, Aziz, who himself lost a brother during the first intifada, reached out in a gesture of friendship. Their extraordinary story and the deep optimism they feel for the future is told in a new book, "The Future is Peace: A Shared Journey Across the Holy Land". They spoke to FRANCE 24's Haxie Meyers-Belkin.
