Hamas encourages women and children to participate in violent riots along Gaza’s border with Israel.
These children should be taught to value peace, not hatred.

A flag is the symbol of what we stand for: our values, our history, and our people.
It reminds us of our mission.
So we'll keep on flying the flag—today and every day.
Shabbat Shalom 🇮🇱
