The organization “Masa”, created by the Jewish Agency (“Sochnut”) and the government of Israel, is expanding the special volunteer program started after October 7th aimed at assisting Israeli society during this difficult period.

Today, May 5th, with the sunset and tomorrow, May 6th, Israel commemorates the Holocaust Remembrance Day and the Heroes of the Resistance (Yom HaShoah).

The Department For the Promotion of Aliyah of the World Zionist Organization is incredibly stunned by the brutal act of hate committed in the mass shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of the victims and their loved ones.
