On Oct. 7, 39 workers from Thailand were murdered by Hamas in Israel. Another 31 were taken hostage into Gaza. So it's probably no surprise that around a third of the 30,000 strong community - which has been taking up agricultural jobs on Israel's farms for decades - left the country in the aftermath of the attacks. Now, they're coming back, in large part motivated by the financial incentives. Rebecca Rosman reports from Israel.
