Amputees injured in Israel's war in Gaza have been given a new lease of life with a competitive football team.
The team was founded five years ago by Zach Shichrur, 36, a sports enthusiast from childhood who was severely injured when a bus ran over his foot at age 8.
Since its founding, the team has met with growing success, placing third in the Nations League in Belgium in October. With that result, the team qualified for the 2024 European Amputee Football Championships in June in France. Some 16 teams, mostly from Europe, will compete.
