STORYLINE:
Many Israelis put on costumes and celebrate Jewish Purim, the festival to mark the salvation of Jews from the ancient Persian Haman's genocidal plot.
Purim has been traditionally a happy, carnival-like holiday for the Jews.
In Israel, reading the Megillat Esther, exchanging gifts of food and drink, and handing out food parcels to the poor are among the activities to celebrate the holiday, which often falls in March.
SOUNDBITE 1 (English): Local resident
"I really love this holiday because even that all of the people have a lot of costumes, it's actually that they are more like themselves because they express themselves even more."
SOUNDBITE 2 (English): Loca
