Remembering October 7, 2023:
A Day of Terror, A Testament to Strength

On October 7, 2024, the global B’nai B’rith family gathered virtually to mark the one-year anniversary of the brutal attack on Israel by Hamas. Together, we were joined by Nikita Somorov, a survivor of that dark day, who shared his powerful story of endurance and survival. Coming together in unity was a source of comfort, as we honored the memory of those tragically lost.

Watch the virtual program below

Listing of who lost their lives on 10/7, as well as those who have since fallen in battle or terror attacks.

B'nai B'rith Stands with Israel, always.

On October 7, a horrendous massacre was unleashed against the people of Israel, carried out with brutality and disregard for human life that boggles the mind. The images of these heinous acts have seared into our hearts and souls forever. Over two hundred hostages, ranging from infants to survivors of the Shoah, were dragged into Gaza, leaving their families plunged into nightmarish uncertainty about their loved ones’ well-being.

Without time to mourn, Israel moved swiftly and declared war on evil. In doing so, it is not only fighting for a safe and secure Israel, but it is fighting for a safe, secure future for all.

B'nai B'rith Israel is activating across the nation

Thousands of members across Israel have organized aid distribution hubs to provide for the many thousands of Israelis displaced from their homes. They are also working to provide food and the “little extras” to Israeli soldiers and medical supplies to Israeli hospitals.

B’nai B’rith International is proud to partner with its Israeli brothers and sisters during this time of great need.

In recognition of our efforts thus far, we have received a thank you letter from Kiryat Shmona Mayor Avichai Stern for the assistance and attention we have given to the city over the past few months. Read the letter in ENGLISH and HEBREW.
