SINCE OCTOBER 7, 2023

On October 7, 2023, Hamas launched a brutal and inhumane attack on Israel—murdering over 1,200 innocent people in their homes and at the Nova music festival. The terrorists abducted 251 men, women, and children—Israelis and non-Israelis, Jews and Arabs, Bedouins, Muslims, and even foreign workers from Thailand.

Since that dark day, Israel has been fighting to eliminate the evil that seeks our destruction—first Hamas in Gaza, and then attacks from Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, and Iran.

922+ brave IDF soldiers have fallen, and 6,374+ have been wounded—each one a beloved son or daughter, brother, sister, or parent. Tens of thousands of civilians were displaced, living for months in hotel rooms with no clear path home.

As a people, we stand firm in our faith. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob goes before us, behind us, and beside us. He is our rock, our fortress, and our deliverer. Without Him, we can do nothing.

Now, after more than two years, Israel is beginning to see the war draw toward its end. On October 13, 2025, the final 20 living hostages in Gaza were released as part of the Gaza Peace Plan and ceasefire. Yet the struggle is not over. Wounds remain deep, and there is a long healing journey ahead.

Hamas has not fully disarmed or released the bodies of 5 fallen hostages, violating the agreement. We continue to pray for the fallen hostages' proper return and burial, and complete elimination of evil.

Our soldiers remain on guard—day and night—protecting Israel’s borders. They need your prayers and your help.

At Netivyah, we have never stopped working to support our IDF soldiers. Through your generosity, we provide life-saving and practical gear—helmets, bulletproof vests, tactical eyewear and gloves, waterpacks, tourniquets, batteries, thermal clothing, meals, and more.

Our kosher kitchen also prepares and delivers meals nationwide, and our Hamotzi program continues to distribute food freely to families in need—many of whom suffer deeply from the war’s economic toll.

To our faithful supporters: your love, prayers, and generosity sustain us. We truly cannot do this without you.

These are difficult days Israel has not seen in many, many years.

Dear brothers and sisters, the time is now. Let us unite in prayer for the hostages, the wounded, the bereaved, and every soul scarred by the trauma of this war.

Stand with us—and if you are able, give—to bring hope, comfort, and aid to the suffering and to those defending Israel on the frontlines. Please also share this message with others who love Israel and desire to stand with her in this difficult time.
