Dear Members of the Technion Community,<\/p>\n

Israel is going through hard and bitter times. Our thoughts and prayers are with those who have lost loved ones, with the families of captives awaiting news, with the wounded, and our defense forces working tirelessly to keep us safe. We pray for the safe return of the hundreds of students, faculty and staff members, who have been called up for reserve service.<\/p>\n
