Satmar Rebbe 24 Hour Visit to Israel

Rabbi Yekusiel Yehuda (Zalman Leib) Teitlebaum, Satmar Rebbe of Williamsburg, landed in Ben Gurion International Airport yesterday for a whirlwind 24 hour visit to Eretz Yisroel,

His visit is due to bearing cash for anti-draft yeshivas that boycott IDF draft notices, and for ultra-Orthodox students injured or beaten during anti-draft protests.

Rabbi Zalman Leib Teitelbaum, who has tens of thousands of followers in the US, is due for a 24-hour visit for a family celebration. He has called for a list of yeshivas whose directors refuse to comply with Israel Defense Forces draft orders, Israeli Channel 2 reported. Many ultra-Orthodox yeshivas allow their students to go to army induction centers to go through the process of applying for deferments, which eventually become exemptions.

In a letter to yeshiva heads, Teitelbaum has also asked for the names of yeshiva students who have suffered injuries in anti-draft protests.
