Why do people dance at the ‘Square of Hostages’ in Tel Aviv?

As I stand here, you can see people dancing behind me in the Square of Hostages in Tel Aviv. It’s a truly remarkable scene, as this is where people have gathered to commemorate the lives of hostages currently held in Gaza. But instead of mourning, they’re celebrating life. The phrase ‘we will dance again’ has become a reality, and it’s a testament to the resilience of the Israeli people. Despite the challenges and hardships, they refuse to let their spirit be broken and their joy taken away. It’s a powerful display of hope and defiance, and it’s clear that these individuals are choosing to honor the lives of those held captive by celebrating. It’s a poignant reminder that even in the darkest times, there is strength in joy.
