There's a whiff of elections in the air in Israel as politicians prepare for lobbying for votes. Meanwhile, a conference at the Open University in Ra'anana will discuss the relationship between the Israel Defense Forces and civil society. Legal expert Dr. Cochav Elkayam-Levy called for justice for victims of sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas and urged the global Jewish community to lead efforts in advocacy and funding. Additionally, a conference on mental health issues deriving from the war will be held in Tel Aviv, and Robbie Anna Hare shared an article by Gil Troy about the hostility towards Jews in the publishing world.
