Siyum Shas Mishnayos in Memory of those Killed in the Carmel Fire

by Yechiel Sever

At a special ceremony in Nir Etzion, the city of Bnei Brak commemorated those who perished in the tragic forest fire with a siyum of Shas mishnayos. Participating were the parents of Rabbi Uriel Malka z"l, a rav of the prison services who perished, as well as other government officials and heads of yeshivas who undertook to help the orphans left after the fire. Bnei Brak mayor Rabbi Yaakov Osher noted that the roshei yeshivos pitched in to help even before they knew that Bnei Brak would help with the funding. The roshei yeshiva included HaRav Avraham Erlanger, rosh yeshivas Nachalas Shlomo, HaRav Sholom Katz, rosh yeshivas Beis Yitzchak, HaRav Yosef Kashani, rosh yeshivas Tiferes HaTorah and HaRav Tzvi Mantzer, mashgiach of yeshivas Beer Yisrael.
