AVICHAY STOLAR
A campaign group in Israel is releasing a book of testimonies from former members of the Israeli Defence Force. The group called "Breaking the Silence" aims to increase access to information about day-to-day life in the occupied Palestinian territories. They published a similar book last year but all the testimonies were anonymous. This led the IDF to question whether the evidence was genuine.
Matthew talks to one of them who has now chosed to be named and photographed: 27-year-old Avichay Stolar.

The 大象传媒's Maud Jullien met two of them as they were beginning to settle in the Senegalese capital, Dakar.
