Yeshiva University Leads with Strength, Support and Solidarity Amid War

As Israel confronts a new and dangerous phase of conflict with Iran, Yeshiva University is rallying its resources to serve not only its own students and faculty, but the wider Jewish community—across Israel, America and the diaspora.

In the wake of Operation Rising Lion, the Israeli military campaign that has targeted Iran’s nuclear program and its terrorist henchmen throughout the regime, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised that the action would continue “for as many days as it takes to remove this threat. We struck at the heart of Iran’s nuclear weaponization program, which could produce a nuclear weapon. We are at a decisive moment in Israel’s history.”

Across the city line on Long Island, a few of the signature summer events for the Jewish communities of the Five Towns, Great Neck, and West Hempstead are the barbecue fundraisers for One Israel Fund, with each of these three locations hosting its own event.
