Tefillos on Behalf of the Hostages to Be Held Motzoei Shabbos at Kever of the Chazon Ish, Zt”l

By Hamodia Staff

An atzeres tefillah on behalf of the hostages held by Hamas will take place this coming Motzoei Shabbos, led by Rabbanim and families of the hostages, at the kever of the Chazon Ish, zt”l, in Bnei Brak.

The event will commence with Kabalas Ol Malchus Shamayim by Harav Masoud Ben-Shimon, the Sephardic Rav of Bnei Brak, followed by a drashah by Harav Baruch Rosenblum and tefillos led by Harav Aharon Taussig.

Initiated by the Ayelet HaShachar organization, along with Rabbanim and askanim, the purpose of the atzeres is to cry and plead on behalf of those who are in distress and sorrow, as 129 Jews are still in Hamas captivity.

Representatives from the hostage families will also speak, including Rabbi Betzalel Schneider, a relative of the Bivas family, and Daniel Eliyahu, a relative of the captive Idan Shatui.
