Netanyahu Prays for Soldiers at Western Wall Before Rosh Hashanah

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the Western Wall less than 24 hours before the start of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. He was accompanied by Suli Eliav during the visit, which was described as moving. At the holy site, Netanyahu recited a chapter of Psalms, specifically praying for the protection and success of IDF soldiers and all citizens of Israel.

The visit took place in the plaza of the Western Wall, a significant religious site in Jerusalem. The timing of the visit, just before a major Jewish holiday, underscores the traditional practice of seeking blessings and divine protection during such times. The Prime Minister's prayer focused on the well-being of the military and the broader Israeli populace.
