A group of prominent Rabbonim from Monsey convened on Sunday afternoon at the home of the Skulener Rebbe of Monsey to discuss the growing concerns surrounding the Israeli government’s push to draft yeshiva students into the army. The Skulener Rebbe himself participated in the meeting, though the gathering included a broader group of Rabbonim and community askonim.
The discussion focused on how American Rabbonim, Roshei Yeshiva, and philanthropists can contribute both financially and strategically to support efforts to protect bnei Torah from conscription. The meeting highlighted the importance of unified action, advocacy, and assistance to ensure that yeshiva students in Eretz Yisroel can continue their Torah learning without disruption.
As the situation continues to develop, participants emphasized the need for collaboration and decisive steps to uphold the values and priorities of the Torah world.
