Yitzhak Rabin Memorial Day: 25th Anniversary of Assassination of Prime Minister and Minister of Defense

The Azrieli Faculty of Medicine Student Union commemorated Rabin Memorial Day on Thursday October 29, 2020, 11 Heshvan 5781. Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated 25 years ago, on November 4, 1995, at the end of a Saturday night rally in Tel Aviv. The theme of the rally was "Yes to Peace, No to Violence."

The day is an opportunity for deep introspection, and to discuss peace and tolerance with others.

At 10:00 a Zoom ceremony was held, attended by faculty as well as medical and MSc/PhD students. In addition, the Student Union uploaded various posts to its Facebook page.

The Student Union thanks all who joined and shared in this emotional day. Special thanks to Prof. Eric Shinwell, Associate Dean Medical Education, for his thoughtful words.
