Yom kippur is the Hebrew day of atonement and it is a worldwide event.

No. Yom Kippur is a fast day, but that is not the literal meaning of the phrase. Yom Kippur (יום כיפור) means "day of atonement" in Ancient Hebrew. Yom means day and Kippur means atonenment.Fasting = tsom (צום) or ta'anit (תענית)

The Day of Atonement is Yom Kippur (Leviticus ch.23). This is the holiest day in Judaism and the day where even secular Jews attend synagogue. On Yom Kippur, Jewish people fast from all food and drinks for a complete 25hrs, starting just before sunset the previous day.
