✡️ Introducing Jewish Trailblazers, a new YouTube series from UNPACKED which seeks to uplift and educate the next generation of Jewish leaders to take pride in their identity. ✡️ Launched last week, this series presents captivating stories of famous Jewish men and women from the 20th and 21st centuries who were renowned in the fields of politics, science, entertainment, sports, and beyond. “This series is more than just a recounting of history,” says Noam Weissman, Executive Vice President of OpenDor Media. “It’s a celebration of Jewish identity and diversity in a time where young Jews are feeling afraid to be openly Jewish. By showcasing a variety of distinguished Jewish figures, the next generation will see themselves in their heroes and feel immensely proud of their heritage.” Read more about the series: https://bit.ly/4dJS6Et

Israel announced early Sunday morning that it had launched preemptive strikes against hundreds of Hezbollah rocket launchers, thwarting a planned attack that intended to hit targets as far as the area around Tel Aviv. Shortly after, Hezbollah launched over 200 rockets and about 20 drones toward northern Israel, insisting that it had hit every site it had wanted to target. Hezbollah added that this was only the “initial response” to the assassination of their top military commander in late July.

This week, Australia's Jewish educators gathered in Melbourne at The Zionist Federation of Australia Educators' Conference to engage in thoughtful discussions around Jewish and Israel education. Yoni Buckman, one of our Education Associates for Unpacked for Educators, facilitated four sessions, including 'Top Five Zionist Moments All Students Should Know', 'Navigating Social Media When Israel is at War', 'Unpacking the "Big Questions" about Israel', and 'Facilitating Courageous Conversations Across Differences', and also participated in the closing panel titled 'The Story We Tell Ourselves: Amplifying Jewish Pride Through Education'. These sessions emphasized the importance of developing cultural literacy around Israel and Zionism for students today and approaching topics such as Zionism, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and antisemitism in an authentic and nuanced way - particularly in the age of social media. Thank you to the ZFA for including Unpacked for Educators in this important conference.

Why are Israeli protesters breaking into IDF bases Sde Teiman and Beit Lid? Last week, a crowd of Israeli protesters, joined by members of the Knesset (Israel’s parliament), stormed into the Sde Teiman detention center in southern Israel after military police arrested several IDF soldiers on suspicion of abusing imprisoned terrorists. Hours later, another group of protesters stormed onto the IDF’s Beit Lid base in central Israel where the detained soldiers were being held. The latest UNPACKED article examines what happened and why these protests at Sde Teiman and Beit Lid erupted in the first place. https://lnkd.in/dUCEh6AN
