Toldos Aharon Holds Special Kiddush to Show Gratitude for Narrowly Averted Tragedy

By Yechiel Sever

A special tefilloh and Kiddush was held at the large, new Toldos Aharon beis medrash in Jerusalem's Meah Shearim neighborhood on Shabbos Bereishis following the miracle that took place on Motzei Shabbos during Hakofos Shniyos when a totally reckless fringe youth burst into the enormous crowd, causing great chaos and fear and throwing large firecrackers that sounded like gunshots.

Recognizing the incident could have ended in disaster, the Admor of Toldos Aharon issued instructions to hold a Kiddush as a show of gratitude that the disturbances caused throughout Chol Hamoed, compromising tznius in the neighborhood, did not lead to more serious consequences.

Toldos Aharon is condemning the act and praying those responsible for the disturbances will do teshuvoh.
