The first episode of Fighters takes us deep into the personal experiences of soldiers who fought in Gaza and are now facing the long road to recovery. Through intimate interviews, raw battlefield footage, and moments of quiet reflection, we witness their transformation—from the heat of combat to the stark reality of rehabilitation.

We follow Maayan, a soldier who left his family in India to return to Israel and fight, only to be critically wounded. As he grapples with his injuries and the psychological toll of war, we see his wife struggle with his decision and his new reality. Meanwhile, Yoav, another wounded soldier, undergoes intensive physiotherapy, determined to walk again despite losing a leg. His interactions with fellow veterans, medical staff, and his loved ones reveal the emotional weight of survival and the camaraderie that binds these fighters together.

The episode is filled with powerful moments—harrowing battle recollections, quiet hospital conversations, and the gut-wrenching process of learning to live with physical and emotional scars. As the soldiers push through pain, uncertainty, and grief, their resilience takes center stage. Through their eyes, Fighters explores what it means to return from war—not just to a place, but to a life forever changed.
