Chabad

"We are distributing food, water, and essential supplies, strengthening families and giving them hope," Rabbi Markovich said of the volunteer operations amid Russian bombardment.

The campaign was directed by Chabad spokesman Rabbi Motti Seligson of the Chabad-Lubavitch Media Center and Chabad.org.

The moving discovery came alongside a visit by Russia’s chief rabbi, Rabbi Berel Lazar, to the main summer camp outside Moscow.

"Our first priority was just to connect with people on a personal level, on an individual level, and find out what people felt was missing," Rabbi Feldman told The Jerusalem Post.

Officers responded within minutes and arrested both suspects shortly afterward.

After spending nine days at a respite camp in the mountains, Jewish families from the Simcha community returned to one of the heaviest drone and missile attacks that Kyiv has seen in recent months.

The man, who is apparently not Jewish, entered the building wearing a kippah and holding a knife and a bat, was promptly confronted by worshippers and bystanders, and was removed from the building.

Authorities said the foreign nationals were being held temporarily at the police station pending their transfer to a detention facility in the capital.

The 'Secular House' is the brainchild of the Free Secular Movement, an Israeli activist organization that promotes secularism and the separation of religion and state in Israel.

Chabad Taiwan wrote that it was a "significant milestone" for the community in an Instagram post. "Sad but important," the post added.
