About
Lehava is an Israeli anti-assimilation NGO founded in 2005, focused on preventing interfaith marriages and promoting Jewish segregation, designated as extremist by multiple governments. It strictly opposes Jewish assimilation, objecting to personal relationships between Jews and non-Jews, and has been involved in protests, leaflets, and acts of violence against such relationships.
