The photograph of MK Ben-Gvir's wife with a pistol gun went viral last week and sparked a wide public debate, and it turns out that she is not alone - more and more women in Israel are walking around armed, and not just in the settlements. What made them buy a gun?

Orit Aloni goes to sleep every night with a gun under her pillow. She has had a gun license for years, but the reality of her area made her bring it even closer to her.

"There used to be fewer women, today there are more women," explains a shooting guide.
