The Mora D’asra of London’s Kedassia Kehilla, HaGaon HaRav Ephraim Padwa Shlita, was transported to a local hospital after collapsing at a chasenah taking place in the Yesod Hatorah hall.

The 75-year-old rav was in an altered stated of consciousness when the decision was made to transport him to a hospital. Hatzalah was called and after checking and evaluating the rav’s situation, the decision was made to transport him to permit doctors to examine him to determine the cause of the syncopal episode.
