On Thursday evening, Channel 14 presenter Maggie Tabibi ended her Tisha B'Av fast live on air by drinking a glass of water.

Tabibi reflected on the significance of Tisha B'Av as a day of mourning for the destruction of the Temple, which she said occurred when people gave up on each other. She urged viewers to overcome judgments based on external markers such as religious attire, beliefs, or appearance, and to remember that beyond all the walls built between them, they share a common destiny. Her remarks highlighted the importance of empathy and solidarity on this solemn day.
