Exactly one month has passed since the terrorist attack by HAMAS militants on Israel. Today, November 7th, the country observes a National Day of Mourning in memory of those who perished.

At 11:00, a minute of silence will be observed.

At 18:00, citizens will gather in central squares in cities and towns to light memorial candles in memory of the deceased.

At 18:30 in Tel Aviv, a memorial ceremony will take place at the Heichal HaTarbut with the participation of the families of the deceased. Leading cultural figures and the philharmonic orchestra will also take part in the ceremony. The ceremony will be broadcast live and is available via [this link](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TUzpiM8SA4).

As darkness falls, a performance will take place in the square in front of the “Habima” theater – the names and photographs of those who died during the massacre on October 7th will be projected onto the theater building.

At 19:30, a memorial ceremony will be held in Jerusalem near the Knesset building.
