About the Ceremony

The theme of this year’s Yom Hazikaron ceremony is “In Their Footsteps,” in recognition of the determination exhibited by new immigrant soldiers who left everything behind and made Aliya in order to enlist in the IDF. We will try to follow the path of those who fell and the unique heritage they have left us. During the ceremony, we will tell the story of the fallen, men and women soldiers as well as civilians who died during terrorist attacks, who have paved the way for us and left behind a legacy of values, identity, and sacrifice.
