We also had the chance to hear music composed during the Shoah, thanks to Amit Weiner, Yael Yekel & Marc Crofts. This music shows the resilience of the Jewish People who, even in the most unbearable situations, chose to create & leave a legacy, in the universal language of music.
"Do not forget us."
Avraham Roet, a 94-year old survivor of the Holocaust, delivers a moving testimony at @UNGeneva.

Honoured to have heard Holocaust Survivor Avraham Roet share his testimony @UNGeneva today on #HolocaustMemorialDay
He made a promise to his two sisters murdered in #Auschwitz - to let the world know and never forget.
Today, I and all of us who listened to him, bear witness.

UPR42 | This afternoon, Israel took part in the UPR of #Argentina. We praised Argentina for steps taken to address antisemitism and urged it to investigate and bring to justice those responsible for the horrific terrorist attack on #AMIA in 1994. #UPR42

The State of Israel will do all it can to bring Avera, Hisham, Oron and Hadar home!
The video of Avera Mengistu is a cynical, heinous & immoral act by a terrorist org.
Today, I wrote to @ICRCPresident, @DrTedros &
@UN_SPExperts urging them to condemn Hamas & demand the immediate return of Avera, Hisham, Oron & Hadar.
We will not rest until our sons are home

News that the Taliban are stopping women attending university is extremely alarming & comes after girls were banned from attending school. We call for an immediate reversal of this decision & all other restrictions against women & girls in #Afghanistan #WomensRightsAreHumanRights

Slander is the act of making a false statement in order to damage a person’s reputation. Calling out someone for making antisemitic comments in their own words is not slander; it is the responsibility of everyone who takes the fight against antisemitism seriously.
