(Minghui.org) Practitioners held informational events in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv-Jaffa, and Beersheba on Thursday, August 21, 2025, to introduce Falun Dafa to the public and raise awareness of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution of the practice in China.
The activities were held from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. and included a demonstration of the Falun Dafa exercises, handing-out leaflets, and collecting signatures on a petition calling to end the CCP’s state-sanctioned forced organ harvesting. Many Israelis talked with practitioners to learn more about the practice and signed the petition.

Jaffa Gate in Jerusalem is an important passage to the Old City, and a popular tourist site for ordinary and religious tourism by Jews, Christians, and Muslims.
Introducing Falun Dafa in Jerusalem on August 21, 2025
Two students said they were returning from an exam. They said they were not surprised by the crimes of the CCP regime in China because there is no law or justice in China.
A father and son signed the petition. The father said, “This is exactly what we need now – truth, benevolence, and forbearance. We are tired of the division, the hatred, and the disputes – we don’t need them anymore.”
A father and his son signed the petition.
Activity at Jaffa-Tel Aviv
Practitioners held events at two sites where many locals and tourists passed by. One is a promenade on the Tel Aviv beach, and the other is the promenade in Jaffa.
A family came to the practitioners’ information table... a father, a mother with a baby in her arms, and a little girl in the first grade. The girl began talking to a practitioner. She then asked her parents to wait for her because she wanted to learn the exercises.
The girl’s family waited as she learned the first exercise, and then they had to leave. They accepted informational materials from the practitioners and were happy to hear about Falun Dafa’s values of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance.
Another couple came to the stand with a little girl in a stroller, and were very moved by the Falun Dafa flyer and the values of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. They praised the practitioners for their efforts to spread good values.
They said, “How good it is that you are doing this. Well done! How much everyone needs this.” They thanked the practitioners for their kindness.
A young man and a young woman approached another practitioner, and the young man said that he knew about Falun Dafa and wanted his friend to hear about it from us too.
A man approached one of the practitioners and said, “I feel your energy when I stand next to you. It makes me feel very good. Where do you practice? I want to come.”
Other passersby showed their support for the practitioners in China and commended the practitioners’ efforts to raise awareness of the persecution, including the CCP’s state-sanctioned forced organ harvesting.

The activity was held in the large plaza between two large shopping malls where the train and bus station are located. Many people signed the petition to end the organ harvesting.
A female soldier spoke with a practitioner about the persecution of Falun Dafa. She listened to the practitioner’s whole story and then took informational flyers for herself and for her parents, so they could also learn about the CCP’s human rights abuses.
