Today we commemorate Jerusalem Day in Israel! 🇮🇱
Jerusalem Day is an Israeli national holiday commemorating the reunification of Jerusalem and the establishment of Israeli control over the Old City in the aftermath of the June 1967 Six-Day War. The day is officially marked by state ceremonies and memorial services.
On this day we also commemorate the Ethiopian Jews who perished on their way to the land of Israel.
Today we mark 53 years since the reunification of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
