The Permanent Mission of Israel to the United Nations convened a special U.N. session on December 4 to hear harrowing testimony about the sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas on Oct. 7. @sherylsandberg told the audience of 700: “There are exactly zero circumstances that justify rape.”
The UN session was co-sponsored by @ncjwinc, WZO, Interwoven/שָׁזוּר, and @schustermanphilanthropies. Lilith photographer @joanrothphotography was on hand to record it. Here are some of her photographs—see them all at lilith.org.

Hannukah begins tonight. This year, we are especially conscious of the illuminating complexities of this holiday as reflected in our present moment. As we light the Hanukiah each night, we`ll be accompanied by our sadness, fear, joy, and exhaustion. We can and we must carry it all. May our empathy and fierce commitment to life endure like the oil central to the Hannukah miracle.
Happy Hannukah/Hanukah alegre/Ah Freilichin Hanukkah/חֲנוּכָּה שַׂמֵחַ from Lilith.
