MTA commemorated Yom Hazikaron with a meaningful program, featuring a moving speech by former lone soldier and current RIETS semicha student Michael Goldman, who shared his experience fighting for Israel in Gaza and discussed how his faith in Hashem helped him get through such a difficult time. Talmidim also observed a moment of silence on behalf of all of Israel’s fallen soldiers and watched an emotional video of Rabbi Eliyahu Meirav, stepfather of 19-year-old Sergeant Yosef Cohen, HY”D, who was killed in a terrorist attack.
