We are proud to lead the largest delegation of ambassadors to ever participate in the March of the Living in Poland—especially this year, as we mark 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz.

Our journey begins here, in the very place where the fate of so many of our people was sealed. The presence of ambassadors from around the world today is a powerful reminder that the victims’ memories live on, that the world has not forgotten, and that the Jewish people stand strong.

Eli Sharabi just concluded his harrowing testimony before the UN Security Council, leaving members in shock at the sheer barbarity of Hamas’s crimes.

For 491 days, Eli was shackled, starved, and deprived of his humanity—while Hamas terrorists commandeered looted UN and UNRWA-labeled humanitarian aid. He exposed how these supplies were funneled into terror tunnels while Israeli hostages suffered. Meanwhile, Gazan civilians cheered on their captors as they endured unimaginable horrors.

The world must not stay silent. Hamas is a terrorist organization. The UN must designate Hamas as such and strip it of any legitimacy.

Eli’s story must be heard. The truth cannot be ignored.

📢 Just ahead of the Security Council session, Israel's Ambassador Danny Danon, met with Eli Sharabi at the UN. In an hour, Eli will share his harrowing testimony with Council members.

Eli’s courage to stand before the international community and deliver his painful testimony is more crucial than ever. We remain committed to amplifying the voices of the hostages until every one of them returns home.
