An Israeli official and the daughter of a man killed on Sept. 11 lit the first candle at a Chanukah ceremony at New York’s Ground Zero.
Israel’s consul general in New York, Arye Mekel, and Laura Lehrfeld, whose father, Eric, died in the 2001 attack, lit the candle Tuesday.
The event was organized by the New York Board of Rabbis.
