Ben-Gvir Crown Heights Fundraiser Cancelled

Times of Israel

A fundraiser with National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir to be held at Brooklyn’s Jewish Children’s Museum was abruptly canceled Friday, shortly after being announced.

The event featuring the far-right Israeli politician was to be hosted by Beis Shmuel Chabad, a Crown Heights synagogue, as a benefit for Chabad of Hebron, in the West Bank.
