This weekend brought huge joy as four of the hostages taken on October 7th were rescued from Gaza and brought home to Israel. We hope and pray for the remaining 120 hostages to be released unharmed, as soon as possible.
Alongside this, Israel continues to highlight its official policy to increase humanitarian aid into Gaza. World Jewish Relief and JW3 are pleased to welcome Colonel Elad Goren, Head of Civil Department at COGAT, for an online briefing on Israel’s values and goals in relation to humanitarian assistance in Gaza. We hope you can join us for this unique and exclusive webinar.
Colonel Goren, who heads up the team responsible for overseeing all humanitarian relief into Gaza, will join World Jewish Relief’s Chair of Trustees, Maurice Helfgott, and CEO, Paul Anticoni, to discuss how Israel is overseeing humanitarian efforts in Gaza, its commitment to navigate the humanitarian complexities, and the importance of additional aid reaching civilians through trusted partners. This is a free, online event, however registration is required.
COGAT is the unit within the Israeli Ministry of Defence that focuses on coordinating civilian issues between the Government of Israel, the Israel Defence Forces, international organisations, diplomats, and the Palestinian Authority.
