The International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People aims to draw global attention to issues related to the conflict in Palestine and support efforts to find a peaceful solution to this long-term problem. This day commemorates the Palestinians' right to self-determination and the creation of their own independent state. The International Day of Solidarity also expresses support for efforts towards peaceful neighborhood and cooperation between Palestine and Israel. It emphasizes the importance of solidarity and cooperation between countries and organizations in the search for long-awaited peace in the Middle East region.

The historical significance of Hanukkah stems from the victory of Jewish rebels called the Maccabees over Syrian invaders and the restoration of the Second Temple in Jerusalem. This event is also associated with a miracle when a small amount of oil intended to consecrate the menorah (seven armies) burned for eight days instead of one, which made it possible to prepare new oil. Hanukkah is a time of joy, fellowship, and remembrance of important events in the history of the Jewish people. This holiday celebrates the spiritual heritage that is passed down from generation to generation and calls for light, hope and solidarity in dark times.
