The prayer was led by Rabbi Simcha Steinberg of Eindhoven, Holland, and among the speakers were Rabbi Binyomin Jacobs, chief rabbi of the inter-provincial Chief Rabbinate of the Netherlands, and Rabbi Netanel Lev, a member of the rabbinical council of Lubavitch, Paris and father of the late Binyamin Lev who fell in battle against the terrorists on 7th October.
