Dr. Yair Ansbacher · Young Israel of East Brunswick
Three years after October 7th, the pain of that day remains with us — but so does the courage, faith, and strength that emerged from it. Dr. Yair Ansbacher, a counter-terrorism expert, IDF reservist, and one of the first fighters to reach the Gaza border on October 7th, will share what he witnessed firsthand that day: the bravery of ordinary people who became heroes, the sacrifices made to save lives, and the moments of faith and hope that appeared even in the darkest hours. He will also speak about his new book, Like a Lion He Shall Rise, which tells the story of October 7th through the lens of courage, miracles, resilience, and the unbreakable spirit of the Jewish people.
