After the voting session in the Knesset Plenum on Tuesday, a historic neiros Chanukah lighting ceremony took place, marking the first time such an event was held in the Knesset.
Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana led the ceremony, reciting the brachos and lighting the neiros.
Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, along with ministers and Knesset members, participated by singing the familiar Chanukah songs.
Additionally, a special yellow candle was lit to symbolize the hope for the return of the hostages. MK Ohana expressed: “We light the candles with a shared prayer for the return of all of the hostages, the safe return of the soldiers, the return of the evacuees to their homes, and the speedy recovery of the wounded.”
