The ongoing war in Gaza has exacerbated food insecurity among vulnerable populations in Israel, due, among other reasons, to the significant blow sustained by the agriculture sector. Since the outbreak of the war, the food rescue organization Leket Israel – the National Food Bank has worked not only to provide food to those in need, but also to support hard-hit farmers. With the approach of the Passover holiday, Leket Israel founder and chairman Joseph Gitler spoke to KAN's Naomi Segal about the most acute needs at this time.
