The Jewish quarter of Jerusalem is inhabited by around 2,000 residents and is home to numerous yeshivas and synagogues, most notably the Hurva Synagogue. After being built in 1701, destroyed, rebuilt in 1864, and destroyed in 1948, the Hurva was once again rebuilt, rededicated in 2010. Jerusalem, Israel, 2012.

Coral 19 began her military service with the IDF a year ago. She will have to do a minimum of two years in the service as opposed to men who do three. Coral believes her job gives her the opportunity to give something back to her country. In her case this means arranging the paperwork when a fellow soldier is killed in action. Coral is very proud to be in the IDF but resents the fact that in the case of a war women don’t get to go to the front line. Tel Aviv, Israel, 2012.
