Service in the IDF
At HaMovil Junction in the Lower Galilee, not far from Nazareth, there is a memorial to the Bedouin soldiers of the IDF fallen since 1948, 230 of them by 2022. The Monument to the Bedouin Soldier (sometimes translated a Fighter or Warrior), established at a site close to Bedouin and other Israeli Arab towns, was inaugurated on Independence Day in 1993 by then-Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. The memorial includes a museum of Bedouin heritage and a garden with medicinal herbs.
