The Memorial Day (Yom HaZikaron) siren sounded on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. During the siren, Israelis stop what they are doing and reflect on fallen soldiers, police, and terror victims, 30,646 since the founding of the State of Israel.

Each year, on Yom HaShoah, traffic comes to a halt and Israelis stop whatever they’re doing to remember the Holocaust and the Six Million.
