Join the Greater Miami Jewish Federation and Community Organizations in Remembering October 7
On October 7, 2023, Hamas unleashed a vicious attack on Israel, killing more than 1,200 innocents, taking 251 people hostage and shattering the global Jewish community’s sense of safety. On the two-year anniversary of that horrible massacre, it is essential that our community come together to mourn those who lost their lives and embrace their families, pray for the remaining hostages, pay tribute to the heroes who fought to defend Israel and reaffirm our community’s strength and commitment to Israel. Please participate in the many events being held in Miami to mark October 7th. Let’s stand with Israel now — and always.
