Yom Ha’Zikaron Holds Renewed Meaning For Jews Worldwide

Yom Ha’Zikaron, Israel’s Memorial Day, which honors Israel’s fallen soldiers, and Yom Ha’Atzmaut, Israel’s Independence Day, take on an even greater meaning this year.

We invite you to commemorate Yom Ha’Zikaron and Yom Ha’Atzmaut in Miami-Dade County. Click here to find an event near you.
