A fundraiser featuring Israel's National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, scheduled at Brooklyn's Jewish Children's Museum, was canceled shortly before his first U.S. visit. Organized to support Chabad of Hebron, which assists Israeli military personnel in the disputed Hebron area, the event's cancellation was attributed to 'unforeseen schedule changes' by an organizer. The decision was met positively by liberal Israeli and Jewish groups who oppose Ben-Gvir's far-right stances on conflict with Palestinians, asserting that his controversial views made his visit particularly contentious.
