YWN PHOTOS: Levaya Of Vizhnitzer Rebbe ZATZAL

As was reported extensively on YWN, the massive Levaya of the Viznitser Rebbe ZATZAL ended earlier today, with approximately 80,000 people in attendance. Dozens of Gedolim, Admorim and Rabbonim were in attendance. The Av Beis Din Bnei Brak, HaRav Yehuda Leib Landau Shlita called for a cessation of all work in the city during the levaya. There were literally hundreds of police, EMS, volunteers, chessed organizations and agencies taking part in the levaya to maintain order and protect participants, and of course to lend assistance when required. Ichud Hatzalah officials report 32 people have been treated, most with light soft tissue injuries from the overwhelming crowd and associated pushing and falls. In compliance with the rebbe’s instructions, the levaya was completed before shekiyah, and no hespeidim were delivered. YWN PHOTO LINK: Click HERE for photos taken at the Levaya by Shuki Lerer for JDN
