Friends and colleagues from around the world,
Time stood still for us in Israel at 06:29 on October 7th, 2023.

The passing week has been the darkest, the hardest, in Israel's history.
The atrocities committed by Hamas are gut-wrenching.

During these terrible times, our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the dead, wounded and abducted.

These tragic events are a clear reminder of the ongoing challenges Israel confronts. Our history is a testament of our resilience, our strength, our innovative spirit, and our determination.

Your support during these trying times is a source of great comfort and strength. Your emails and messages are beacons of light in the darkness that engulfs us.

And for those wanting to help – speak up! Raise your voice! Share our story, our pain, and our grief, for the whole world to know.

For a better tomorrow - stand by us, stand by Israel.
