Sights & Sounds in Uman Rosh Hashanah 5779/2018
Rosh Hashanah is celebrated in countless different places around the world, but the Ukrainian city of Uman is particularly resonant for the Chasidic Breslov sect, whose founder, Rebbe Nachman, is buried here. Followers of Nachman, who died in 1810, believe in the importance of an annual pilgrimage to his gravesite during Rosh Hashanah, so thousands of Hasidic Jews continue to flock to Uman.
A record amount of Hasidic Jews are flocking to Uman – all told we're likely to see more than 30,000 arrive here during the festival, from 25 countries. Boryspil International Airport has been tasked with handling over 20,000 Hasidic Jews from all over the world, using 236 special flights. According to information gleaned from the airport, the great majority have come from the USA and Israel.
Many of the pilgrims have stayed in tents in Uman, while some have rented apartments. A squad of Israeli police officers, backed up by more than 400 Ukrainian law-enforcement personnel, have been providing the security over Yom Tov
Below are news reports from local TV news stations

Blev Echad Makes This Special Child's Wish Come True
Two weeks ago B'lev Echad hosted a huge extravaganza, a day full of fun, a concert with Simcha Leiner and Baruch Levine, and much more....
At the event Six year old Chesky born with a rare disease known as OI (Brittle bone which every wrong move with the child can cause tissue and bone failure) was brought up to the stage and was asked, what he would want Blev Echad to do next.... his answer was no more then that he would love a trip to Uman before he turns the age of 7!!!
As he said that, we all thought this would be impossible but right on, B'lev Echad excepted the request and started working on it as if it was nothing, the phones became busy with phone calls, calling the travel agents, taking care of all the medical assistance needed for such a trip, contacting the airline to work out it should be safe for Chesky to fly, a special car was reserved in Ukraine for all the medical machinery (oxygen, wheelchair accessible etc..) a special hotel room was reserved as well to accommodate all these needs.
And finally the day arrived B'lev Echad had made reservations for Chesky and both his parents to go with their son on his dream trip....a special volunteer with EMT also went along with them in any case of need, Chesky arrived to Ben Gurion airport and was he headed straight down to the gate where he boarded his flight LY2653 to Ukraine....... The joy on Chesky's face is indescribable, tears of joy were on the faces of the ones joining the trip!!
Finally after a 4 hour flight they landed in the Ukraine airport, where there was waiting the van reserved for Chesky's needs, right on they headed towards Mezhbiz where they spent the weekend and Shabbos by the Bal ShemTov. Sunday morning after a small trip in a local kids park, Chesky and his parents arrived to Uman......
This was the moment they were all waiting for, Chesky in his wheelchair literally wanted to jump out and run to the Kever of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, tears were on all In the room at that moment, a young disabled child saying Tehillim with such a joy, Chesky accompanied by his father said the famous Tikun Haklulli written by Rabbi Nachman, and prayed for the health of Chesky and on behalf of the whole Klal Yisroel,

Body of Missing Israeli Amir Ohana Found
The body of missing Amir Shlomo Ochana, a husband and father of three from Bat Yam, Israel, has been found in a lake in Uman, Ukraine. He was 28.
Amir Shlomo had gone to Uman for Rosh Hashanah and then disappeared during his visit there.
Volunteers from Israel and elsewhere joined a frantic search that included divers, trained canines, and many police officers. Amir Shlomo went last Tuesday, the second day of Rosh Hashanah, into a forest with his friend, from whom he got separated. The friend notified police of his disappearance.
Amir Shlomo was wearing his Yom Tov clothing when he was found, but not shoes and socks. Zaka says that Amir Shlomo had apparently been sitting on the river bank with his feet in the water. An epileptic, he might have had an epileptic seizure or heart attack and fallen into the water.
Amir Shlomo’s body will be brought to Eretz Yisroel for kevurah.
Boruch Dayan Ha’emes.
