A controversy arose at the Ohel Shem High School in Ramat Gan after the school principal, Israel Viluzhny, suspended a student for putting on tefillin (phylacteries) on the school grounds.
The incident, which was first reported on Kol Hai radio, escalated after hundreds of students at the prestigious school, which has about 1,400 students aged 14-18, collected money and jointly purchased a pair of tefillin to put on during breaks between classes.
According to Orel Malik, a student who led the initiative, after the events of October 7, the students became eager to get closer to tradition and put on tefillin.
