Israel’s Frontline Soldiers Take Part in Purim Festivities

Chabad-Lubavitch emissaries and rabbinical students across Israel set out to army outposts last Thursday night and Friday to bring some Purim happiness to frontline soldiers serving in the Israeli Defense Force. Riding in special “synagogues on wheels,” they gave army personnel the opportunity to hear the Scroll of Esther being read, as well as participate in the mitzvah of giving charity to the poor.
