Jewish holy days

Any initiative targeting fanatism, xenophobia and anti-Semitism should be targeted, Bulgaria's President Rosen Plevneliev said on Monday.

Attending a ceremony of lightting candles on the Hanukkah Menorah at the Sofia Synagogue, Plevneliev argued that even the worst of evils could be stopped when people of different religious background unite and say "no" to hatred.

BELGRADE - Hanukkah, the Jewish Festival of Lights, has been marked at Belgrade's Starina Novak primary school with an exhibition of children's drawings, titled A View into the World, and a symbolic ceremony at which an interactive board was presented to the school to help develop the friendship between Jewish and Serbian children.
