During the intermediate days of the Sukkot holiday, a moving visit took place by Ilan and Clara Hamami, the parents of Israel's hero Lt. Col. Asaf Hamami, in the sukkah of Degel HaTorah chairman MK Yaakov Asher. Asaf Hamami, who was abducted to the Gaza Strip and whose body was returned for burial in Israel, is a hero of Israel. The visit was accompanied by media personality Israel Cohen, a prominent activist in the ultra-Orthodox sector for the families of hostages and survivors since October 7. During the visit, the Hamamis spoke about the need for unity among all parts of Israeli society and the need to avoid division and incitement between different sectors. They presented MK Asher with their commemorative medal for their son, which outlines his core principles for the people of Israel. Ilan Hamami recounted that Israel's ambassador to the US, Yehiel Leiter, called him to pray for the recovery of his son Nehariya, who was seriously wounded in a terror attack last week. Hamami added that Leiter, a bereaved father, had previously traveled with him to visit the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp.
