Imagine keeping kosher, lighting Shabbat candles, and not knowing why... These people are descendants of Crypto-Jews: Jews who were forced to practise their faith in secret for fear of persecution. We travelled all the way to Mexico to meet Blanca, a devout Christian who discovered her family's Crypto-Jewish past and somehow found her way back to her roots.

Around the world, Halloween is celebrated freely with costumes, tricks and treats. But under the Islamic Regime in Iran, celebrating Halloween can come with serious consequences. That didn't stop ordinary Iranians from dressing up. Not necessarily in celebration, but in protest for a better life. Follow @buildersmideast for more untold stories.

Her life was saved by an Israeli doctor as a child. Now she's a nurse in Morocco saving lives herself! When @Ezzarghani first heard Hiba's incredible story, it challenged everything he thought he knew about Jews. So we travelled back to Morocco's Amizmiz Mountains, where he reunited with Hiba to tell her just how much she changed his life. Follow @buildersmideast for more stories.

Israel's elections are tomorrow, but there are still people who haven't made up their minds about whether to vote. So we took one of them to the streets to hear what average voters had to say. Could a conversation with a stranger change her mind? #Israel #Elections2026 #Debate

What if a longtime leader fighting to hold on to power became the last man on Earth? Imagine finally having absolute power, only to realize there's no one left to rule. #IsraeliPolitics

Domestic violence took her sister. Now, @LiliBenAmi wants to prevent other families from experiencing the same tragedy. Her personal loss led her into politics, where she hopes to make the safety of women and children a government priority. She's now running for a seat in the Israeli Knesset with Avigdor Liberman's Yisrael Beitenu party. Follow @buildersmideast for more stories!
