Thousands of members of the Bnei Akiva religious-Zionist youth movement are taking part in a campaign to put memorial candles on the graves of all the Israel Defense Forces' fallen soldiers, ahead of Memorial Day, Sunday evening and Monday. The goal of the "candle for the fallen" campaign is that no grave should go unremembered. Other groups will provide flags and flowers.

For the first time, campaign organizers decided this year to include victims of terror who were murdered in recent years.
