Almost Heaven

Well-known
Ammunition Hill, a significant national heritage site in Jerusalem, announced the lighting of 90 menorahs with olive oil across various battlefields, including areas within Gaza. This initiative is set to take place during the upcoming Hanukkah festival, symbolizing a profound commemoration and a message of peace and triumph.

The olive oil, specially extracted from olive trees planted at Ammunition Hill after the Six-Day War, embodies a rich history of valor and victory. "These trees stand as living memorials to the fallen soldiers of the war, with 182 olive trees planted by their bereaved families," a statement on behalf of the Ammunition Hill memorial said.
