A "Hitvadut" (gathering for spiritual contemplation) and Slichot (penitential prayers) service was held at Mount Herzl in Jerusalem, near the graves of Israel's fallen heroes. The event, described as "chills-inducing," focused on remembrance and seeking forgiveness. The article includes a video of the proceedings, noting that the content is shared under copyright law.

The event took place on the eve of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, a time when many Israelis visit the graves of loved ones, particularly soldiers who fell in service to the nation. Mount Herzl is Israel's national cemetery, serving as the final resting place for many of the country's most prominent figures, including prime ministers, presidents, and fallen soldiers.
