Antisemitism and the rising threats against Jewish communities are a growing danger across the globe.
As part of Antisemitism Awareness Week, President Isaac Herzog today, Wednesday, hosted Jewish leaders and friends of Israel from around the world at the President’s Residence. During the event, a panel was held with several heads of Jewish communities, who shared their difficult experiences over the past year. Speakers included Natan Sharansky and including CEO of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, William Daroff.
In his speech, the President called for collective action against antisemitism and emphasized the critical importance of Jewish unity in the face of unprecedented challenges.
“Jewish unity is not just an idea—it is a living, breathing force. We feel it most deeply when we stand together and demand the immediate release of our hostages,” said Herzog.
