We are writing to you with heavy hearts from ZAKA Tel Aviv as we continue our life-saving work on the ground in the aftermath of a devastating missile assault on Israel. Over 250 ballistic missiles were fired at Israel in six massive barrages, with approximately 25 impact sites identified across civilian and residential areas. The damage is overwhelming. Tragically, we are mourning 9 fatalities, and more than 220 people have been injured including 2 in critical condition. One missile struck a building at the IDF Headquarters, and many residential areas have been hit hard. Our ZAKA teams are tirelessly combing through the rubble, searching for victims and providing emergency support wherever it is needed. Israel is preparing for further massive airstrikes, as intelligence indicates Iran still possesses around 2,000 ballistic missiles. Additionally, the IDF struck Yemen late Shabbos, targeting a senior Houthi military leader. We are facing a critical and escalating situation. Our volunteers are on the front lines, putting their lives at risk to save others and honor the dead with dignity. The needs are great. We need your support now more than ever to continue this sacred mission. Please consider making an urgent donation to help us continue our vital work. Your support directly enables our teams to respond quickly, save lives, and bring comfort and respect to victims and their families. |
