Gallery
Yad L'Hoshia, under the auspices of Keren Vayoel Moshe, is once again preparing to stand on the front lines outside the Lishkas Hagiyus to save yeshiva bachurim from the looming threat of the draft.
In recent days, Hatzalah Migiyus offices confirmed that the military has scheduled a massive draft day for this coming Sunday, Parshas Chayei Sarah. Hundreds of bachurim have received summonses to present themselves at the Lishkas Hagiyus. Activists warn that this presents a grave spiritual danger, as the army attempts to pressure bachurim into escaping the heavy burden of sanctions by surrendering to the military, R"l.
Ahead of Sunday, the Hatzalah Migiyus offices have been overflowing with bachurim seeking guidance. Staff members are providing private consultations, alongside central hadracha shiurim delivered by the leaders of the rescue efforts, R' Binyomin Tepp, chairman of Hatzalah L'Achim, and R' Dovid Gross, chairman of Yad L'Hoshia. During these sessions, bachurim are thoroughly prepared on how to navigate the Lishkas Hagiyus and secure their final ptur on the day they are called to report.
Meanwhile, Irgun Achim Anachnu is organizing a massive demonstration outside the Lishkas Hagiyus on the day of the draft. Masses of Yirei Hashem are expected to gather to protest and offer chizuk to the bachurim facing this daunting spiritual trial, sending a clear message that Klal Yisroel stands firmly behind every bachur fighting to maintain his Yiddishkeit.
