Today’s 7 of October 2024, my heart goes out to the families of the victims. These past months have been emotionally draining, yet they have inspired me to find strength and hope amid the chaos. As we grapple with the rising antisemitism and defend our values, I reflect on the importance of honoring those lost and the ongoing efforts to rescue the remaining hostages.
