An Israeli woman held hostage by Hamas was in June at the University of California, Los Angeles and participated in a debate with a pro-Palestinian student and the son of Hamas founder Mosab Hassan Yousef.
The debate took place as part of The Gr8 Debate at the University of California.

The day before yesterday, on October 7, 2024, a day of remembrance for Israelis everywhere, the government allowed Palestinians and various left-wing groups to march on the Israeli embassy.

On 7.10.2024, the general secretary of KISE Victor I. Eliezer participated in the show "On the air" with Niki Lymberakis on R/S Parapolitika and they discussed the developments in the Middle East. The transcript of the interview follows. Listen HERE the audio clip (33.00' – 46.35').
N. Lymberakis: We will talk with Mr. Victor Eliezer, Secretary General of the Central Jewish Council of Greece and journalist. We will also talk about the climate in Israel, the commemorative events and images that are going around the world and about the big question I think is whether there is a visible end to this bloodshed which of course starts from a barbarity, from a ferocity. The Hamas attack last year on the Nova festival with 1.200 dead and 250 hostages.
