Chareidi Leaders Meet In Bnei Brak To Discuiss Logistics
The Chareidi public is awaiting confirmation amid growing concern over the recent yeshiva student arrests and the looming threat of a draft decree against the Torah world. Despite attempts to delay or cancel the gathering, this time it appears that plans are moving forward — though details could still change.
The organizing committee, composed of representatives from Shas, Agudas Yisroel, and Degel HaTorah, met this morning at Bnei Brak City Hall in a rare show of unity. According to reports, the massive atzeres is tentatively set to take place Thursday afternoon at the entrance to Yerushalayim — the same location as the historic 2014 gathering. However, the organizers still face logistical and financial challenges, including coordination with police and local authorities.
The initiative follows the arrest of Ariel Shamai, a bochur from Yeshivas Ateres Shlomo, whose detention has sparked widespread outrage across the Chareidi community. For the first time, even Degel HaTorah joined the protests.
HaRav Sholom Ber Sorotzkin, Rosh Yeshivas Ateres Shlomo, has been working to unite all segments of the Torah world around the issue. This morning, he participated in a rare full-session meeting of the Eida HaChareidis Beis Din in Yerushalayim, led by HaGaon HaRav Moshe Sternbuch, to discuss next steps in response to the ongoing arrests of yeshiva students.
Meanwhile, thousands of children from the Ateres Shlomo Talmudei Torah network are expected to gather Monday outside Prison 10 to protest the arrest — following the directive of HaGaon HaRav Moshe Hillel Hirsch.
