Straight Facts
Dear Chaverot
I hope this finds you all well. It has been quite a month! The first phase of a US brokered ceasefire went into effect into October and with it saw the return of the remaining 20 living hostages. It is impossible to describe in adequate words the absolute jubilation to have them home. Along with the joy we also feel immense sorrow for the 28 deceased hostages, 8 of whom remain in Gaza at the time of writing this. To Israelis, each one is a universe and we will not stop speaking for them until they are all home and laid to rest with the dignity they deserve.
In this edition of Straight Facts, the wonderful Erin Molan interviews former hostage, Eli Sharabi, we find out if journalists have been going into Gaza, learn what Israel can teach the world and more.
Please don’t forget to share this with your community and WIZO federations.
I hope this is of service to you.
Warm regards
