Straight Facts
Dear Chaverot
I hope this finds you all well. As always, so much has happened since last month. Israel launched “Operation Rising Lion”, pre-emptively striking Iranian nuclear and military targets in an act of self-defense. Iran fired hundreds of ballistic missiles and drones into Israeli civilian areas, killing over 30 and causing damage to at least 33 000 structures – including 16 WIZO facilities.
In this edition of Straight Facts, we look at Operation Rising Lion, examine how the mainstream media has been weaponized against Israel, debunk accusations of genocide and more.
Please share with your Federations and communities.
I hope this is of service to you.
Warm regards
Rolene Marks
