Our statement on Sunday's march. In solidarity with the Chief Executive Rabbis of Progressive Judaism. yachad.org.uk/statement-on...

Our statement on the UK government's announcement regarding the possible recognition of Palestine.

The words and actions of the Israeli government have made their intentions clear. This war must end. Staying silent in the face of the human suffering in Gaza is an affront to our Jewish values. We demand action is taken to stop this immediately.

Progressive Jewish clergy bodies call on Board of Deputies to reconsider sanctions on 36 deputies who spoke against Gaza war, based on “…vital values of moral conscience, freedom of speech, and respectful debate within our tradition.” Full statement: www.liberaljudaism.org/2025/07/cler...

Gazans desperately trying to reach aid are being shot dead. On the ground hungry Palestinians are being killed. Underground the hostages are suffocating. This isn’t security, it’s politics. As we wait for politicians to end this, people are dying for nothing. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Our statement on Iranian and Israeli missile strikes, on 15 June 2025. yachad.org.uk/statement-on...

We wholeheartedly support the UK government decision to sanction extremist ministers Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich. Last year hundreds of British Jews & Israelis in the UK wrote to the British PM calling for sanctions against these ministers. Our statement: yachad.org.uk/statement-on...

There’s still time to sign our letter to the Prime Minister - the government needs to know that many British Jews support an end to the the horrific war in Gaza & want an immediate return of all hostages. Please sign & share: yachad.org.uk/StarmerLetter

If you want to make it known that many members of the Jewish community are horrified by the continuation of war, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza & the abandonment of the hostages sign this letter. Your voice does not have to go unreported and unheard 👇🏼 yachad.org.uk/StarmerLetter

600 days in captivity. A number that no one could have ever imagined. We stand with the families of the 58 remaining hostages in calling for a ceasefire that will bring home all of their loved ones and end the war.

Horrific news to wake up to this morning- a deadly shooting took place near the Jewish Museum in DC, with two murdered. Our thoughts are with their loved ones & all those affected. Jewish communities shouldn’t have to live in fear. There’s absolutely no justification for this.

Breaking the Silence has always been a key partner of ours. They’ve helped us educate on the reality of occupation, be it through tours in the West Bank or events in the UK. We’re grateful for their constant support. If you can please donate & support: www.drove.com/campaign/67d...

#Jewish teaching urges us to ‘seek peace’, ‘pursue justice’, and defend the vulnerable and oppressed. The call of British Rabbis to the British government: ‘Save their soul from death, keep them alive in famine’ (Psalm 33:19) #AidToGazaNow @Yachad.bsky.social

British rabbis in an important call to the UK government: "...there are religious leaders here who reject the cruelty of the denial of food and humanitarian aid to Gaza as a tool of warfare: and who are distraught at the desertion of the hostages there.” www.thejc.com/news/uk/uk-r...

Really pleased to be speaking at this demo on Sunday, 3pm in Whitehall. Please join us to show your solidarity with Israelis protesting against the war and in support of democracy👇🏽

This year marks 80 years since the liberation of Bergen Belsen. On the eve of Yom HaShoah, we’ll join the @yomhashoahuk commemoration ceremony. On Yom HaShoah we remember the 6 million Jews who were murdered during the Holocaust. ‘Never again’ must truly mean never again. yomhashoah.org.uk

Chag Sameach to all those celebrating. It's hard to celebrate a holiday centered on freedom as so many people remain trapped in war. Too many families are yearning for their loved ones to come home. Our thoughts are with those fighting to free the hostages & to end the war.

In this week’s @jewishnews.bsky.social - two letters worth paying attention to: The first signed by former heads of Israel’s security establishment, the second signed by 250 hostage families & released hostages - both calling for an end to the war & return of all hostages.

Free speech is a cornerstone of democracy. The decision to ban the entry of these MPs is another step the Israeli gov is taking in shutting down free speech & criticism from within and from abroad. Our full statement: yachad.org.uk/statement-on...

The Israeli government has resumed the war in Gazas. Hundreds were killed over night. 59 hostages remain in Hamas captivity. This war will not end Hamas. It will certainly continue to kill innocent civilians in Gaza, and almost certainly lead to the deaths of more hostages.

Today we joined hostage families and thousands of people in Jerusalem to pay respects & saying goodbye to Shiri, Ariel and Kfir Bibas. Our thoughts are with Yarden and the whole family who fought so hard to bring them home.

1/3 Tomorrow Hamas will release the bodies of Shiri, Ariel and Kfir Bibas, as well as Oded Lifshitz. They were all taken from their homes in Nir Oz on Oct 7th 2023. Kfir was 9 months old. Ariel was 4 years old. Their families have been fighting & hoping for their safe return.

Yesterday President Trump outlined his vision for the Middle East: transferring Palestinians out of Gaza with no option to return. This should be called out for what it is: ethnic cleansing. This plan is dangerous and must be stopped. Full statement: yachad.org.uk/trumpgaza0225/

1/2 After waiting for hours with baited breath and watching the utter chaos unfold – eight hostages have been released by Hamas and Islamic Jihad. After 15 months in captivity – Agam Berger, Arbel Yehud (below) and Gadi Mozes are free alongside 5 Thai hostages –

1/2 President Trump's proposal to transfer Palestinians out of Gaza is being hailed by the Israeli far-right. The UK gov must stand against forcing the transfer of Palestinians from their homes. We need a viable Palestinian state alongside a secure Israel. www.timesofisrael.com/smotrich-and...

An honour to hear from survivor Janine Webber on Holocaust Memorial Day at the FCDO. We always remember the 6 million Jews & millions more murdered by the Nazis. Today, we reflect on past horrors, commit to fighting hatred & preventing further atrocities.

Romi Gonen, Doron Steinbrecher & Emily Damari are home after 471 days in Hamas captivity on the 1st day of a long awaited ceasefire. Emily is British-Israeli & many in our community have followed her story closely. May this ceasefire hold & all hostages return home.

Itamar Ben Gvir: "over the past year, using our political leverage, we were able to prevent the [ceasefire] deal from coming to fruition, time after time" lots of people need to hear this

We stand in solidarity with the Australian Jewish community after yesterday’s arson attack of the Adass Israel synagogue in Melbourne. Jews across the world will be shaken by this vicious antisemitic attack. There’s no justification for this violent hate. www.timesofisrael.com/melbourne-sy...
