Against the backdrop of missile attacks from Iran, Brothers and Sisters in Israel, the civilian arm of Brothers and Sisters in Arms, is offering help to local authorities to supply people evacuated from damaged buildings to hotels with basic equipment such as clothing and toiletries.
It is also organizing food and equipment for redeployed soldiers in the field.
In addition, the organization is receiving requests from military units sent to new locations for everything from shade net and mobile shower units to books and food.
According to CEO Hadas Danieli-Yalin, it is supplying mattresses both to soldiers and to bomb shelters in northern towns.
It is currently waiting for Home Front permission to open a logistics center in the north of the country.
Brothers and Sisters in Israel played a key role in the civilian operation to help soldiers and civilians in the immediate aftermath of the October 7, 2023, Hamas invasion of southern Israel that saw the brutal murder of 1,200 mainly civilians and the abduction to the Gaza Strip of 251.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
