Israeli government recognizes Diaspora victims in historic resolution – The historic resolution, adopted on May 27, 2024, follows a call made in 2022 by Yaakov Hagoel, chairman of the World Zionist Organization. | The Jerusalem Post

The government on Monday approved Resolution 492, which officially commemorates Jews who lost their lives due to their Jewishness in hostile acts with an antisemitic background in the Diaspora.
For the first time since the establishment of the state, the government on Monday approved a proposal – by Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism Minister Amichai Chikli – to recognize the State of Israel’s duty as the nation-state of the Jewish people and to officially commemorate Diaspora Jews who are not Israeli citizens, murdered because of their Jewishness in hostile acts with an antisemitic background. The “Ruderman Plan,” as the ministry dubbed it, was named for the Ruderman Family Foundation, which laid out the framework for promoting this historic step.
