A former Egyptian soldier has kept the "pants" of an Israeli soldier for 48 years!

In a strange "surprise" of its kind, a retired Egyptian corporal named Mustafa Muhammad, one of the soldiers who participated in the October 1973 war against Israel, displayed, during a television interview, "an Israeli soldier's pants", which he kept as a "memorial".

Corporal Mustafa Muhammad said, during an interview on "Sada Al-Balad" channel, that he "received the trousers of an Israeli soldier with traces of blood from the soldier," noting that "he obtained the coins that the soldier was carrying."

He added, "I took everything I could from him."

The pioneers of social networking sites celebrated the incident, describing the soldier as a "hero."
