Israel News Images Israel News Photos and Israel News Pictures of Israel\\\'s Independence Day Yom HaAtzmaut begins the minute Israel\\\'s Memorial Day ends, and the switch from sorrow to joy is quite sudden and dramatic. Israel\\\'s Independence Day is celebrated each year on 5 Iyar, which corresponds to May 14, 1948, the day that the State of Israel was proclaimed. Days before the celebration, Israeli flags begin to wave from almost every house and car. On the eve of Israel Independence Day, there are parties, singing and dancing on the streets, and fireworks. On Independence Day, everyone packs their picnic baskets with charcoal and lots of meat for BBQ. Then they head out in search of the perfect picnic spot. The whole country is dotted with families outdoors enjoying The Land of Israel. All Photos by Rafael Ben-Ari/Chameleons Eye
