Masa Israel Journey is holding its 17th annual Yom HaZikaron ceremony at Yad La-Shiryon in Latrun (Israel's official memorial site), bringing together more than 4,500 expected attendees in what will be the largest English-language commemoration of its kind, with countless more viewers participating online.
Watch:
This year's event carries heightened significance amid the continuing aftermath of the October 7 attacks, the ongoing war, and increasing global antisemitism. Under the theme "Together We Remember," the ceremony will provide a space for collective mourning during these challenging times for Israel and Jewish communities worldwide.
The commemoration will feature government representatives, including Yossi Fuchs, Cabinet Secretary of the Government of Israel, alongside Jewish community leaders such as Rebecca Caspi, Senior VP of Global Operations and Director General of JFNA Israel, and Yehudah Setton, CEO of The Jewish Agency for Israel.
