Department for the Promotion of Aliya co-organized a special Candlelight Vigil, where hundreds of people came together in unity, offering prayers, lighting candles in memory of the lives lost, and sharing commitment to stand with Israel.
The birthday of Israeli civil aviation is considered to be September 28, 1948, when the first president of the state, Chaim Weizmann, arrived in Israel from Geneva on board a military aircraft, Douglas C-54 Skymaster, converted for civilian use.
