Minister Miri Regev emphasized the importance of the upcoming state memorial ceremony commemorating the tragic events of October 7, amidst significant public division regarding the event.
A recent Maariv poll indicates a stark divide in public opinion, with 45% opposing the state ceremonies, revealing a pronounced political split.
The residents of several kibbutzim in the Gaza Envelope have expressed their refusal to participate in the official ceremony, opting instead for more personal commemorations.
Regev acknowledged the emotional weight of the ceremony, highlighting the values it aims to represent while also addressing the grievances of those affected by the tragedy.
