The Joint Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Day Ceremony, organised by Combatants for Peace and the Parents’ Circle Families Forum, is one of the largest Israeli-Palestinian peace events in history. Taking place every year on Yom HaZikaron, this profoundly moving ceremony includes testimony from bereaved Israelis and Palestinians, musical performances and messages of peace.
Last year, Beit Samueli Reform Synagogue in Ra’anana was violently attacked as they screened the ceremony. This year, we invite you to come together to stand in solidarity with the community, their Rabbi Chen Ben-Ore Tsfoni and all those who choose to mourn side by side and model a peaceful way forward.
Tickets include an optional £10 donation. All proceeds will be donated to Combatants for Peace and the Parents’ Circle Families Forum.
