HASHEM LOVES HIS CHILDREN


ORDER TO EVACUATE APARTMENT BUILDING SAVED 36 LIVES (2 x היי - chai)

On Saturday morning, Liran Cohen, a resident of Holon, Israel tried to leave his apartment to go to synagogue but could not open his door to leave his home. So he decided to call the Holon Fire Department who responded by dispatching a team of firefighters to the scene reports Forum Holon.

The firefighters assessed the situation and broke down the Cohen family’s door using the tools at their disposal. Upon entering the living room, they noticed a massive crack and immediately realized that the building as a whole was in a dire state.

Shortly thereafter, similar complaints were received by other residents of the same apartment building who also had difficulty opening the doors to their homes.

The firefighters that were called to the scene reported the incidents to their Captain Yoni Butzkovsky. Butzkovsky decided to order the immediate evacuation of all residents from the building.

“We saw that the structure was changing form so we decided to evacuate everyone,” he said.

Only thirty-two hours after Butzkovsky’s decision to evacuate, the entire building collapsed to its foundation.

And so, sixteen 36 lives were saved, all because one man wanted nothing more than to go to synagogue to pray on the Sabbath.

H' works in mysterious ways and was probably waiting for someone who wanted to do a 'Mitzvah'. thus causing the saving of 36 (double chai) lives. The dwellers all had the same problem but this guy was the one who wanted to do a mitzvah of going to shul and daven so he picked up the phone and thereby saved all those lives! Beautiful story!

Truly a miracle. Baruch Hashem.

The ones who built the building should be taken to task. Obviously they did not do a good job, and used cheap unreliable material ?

If so then the owner of the apartment block should be sued.

G'mar Chatimah Tovah to all:

Yes, there is so much corruption in all areas of life, medical, construction, legal, etc. and it's all coming out now; truth must win out and we are already at the time of Geulah and rectifications will take place (but wish it goes faster).
So many lives at stake because of the wickedness. We pray that Hashem will send us Moshiach in a blink of an eye, at any moment!
