TEHILLIM NEEDED - Chabad Shaliach & Wife Missing Since Terror Attack
November 26, 2008

As soon as the news broke of the Mumbai terror attacks, YWN contacted
Chabad officials to inquire if the local Shaliach was assisting in
rescue efforts - as is the case when tragedies occur across the globe.
We also inquired if there were any Jews R”L killed and/or injured.

“We will get back to you as soon as we reach the Shaliach”, was
the response.

Several hours have passed, and the local Chabad Shliach, Rabbi
Gavriel Holtzberg, and his wife Rivka cannot be located. Numerous
attempts to locate him have failed.

According to some reports, one of the bombs was detonated near the
Chabad House located on 5 Hormusji Street - Nariman House in
Mumbai’s Colaba area. Another Chabad official told YWN that there
are unconfirmed reports that the Chabad House was “taken-over by the
terrorists”.

“We are working closely with the American and Israeli
Government’s to try and get credible information”.

“We are waiting for them to contact us,” the anxious
mother-in-law of the Shliach, Mrs. Yehudis Rosenberg told a Chabad
website. “It’s possible that the phone system in the country
crashed - which is a frequent occurrence there.”

The Tzibur is requested to say Tehillim for Gavriel Noach ben Freida
Bluma, and Rivka bas Yehudis.

[Numerous locations were attacked by gunfire and bombs - injuring
close to 1000 and killing 80.]

MIRACLE OF Rochel Imeinu Yortzeit video

I received the following from the woman who coordinated the Rochel
Imeinu video:



the video was dedicated in the zechus of refuah sheleima for someone
who had a brain tumor

you can see that's in the first screen

and I just found out today

that within 24 hours of the yarzeit of Rochel Imeinu

the brain tumor DISAPPEARED

FROM ACHDUS BULLETIN EXPLOSIVE DEVICE FOUND NEAR SHUL

The incident did not occur in Chicago but in DesPlaines at a
synagogue

located at 9401 Margail.

A device was apparently left there late on 11/8 which burst on Sunday


morning 11/9.

The device was configured with a plastic pop bottle that had some

chemical and metal fragments in it.

The cold snap in the weather caused the liquid to expand when
freezing

and burst the plastic bottle.

No one was hurt but damage to a screen door was noticed on 11/9.

Both the DesPlaines and State Police departments are investigating.
