Gedolei Yisrael Shlita have called for an atzeres tefilla today, Thursday, 4 Adar 5773, in Beis Knesset Talmidei Yeshivas Ponevezh L’Tzeirim in Bnei Brak in light on ongoing and mounting pressure to draft bnei Torah into the military and close down yeshivos. Yated Neeman refers to the ongoing share the burden effort as a גזירת שמד ר”ל.

The atzeres is set to begin at 22:15, lasting for one hour. Divrei chizuk will be heard from Mashgiach HaGaon HaTzaddik Rav Don Segal Shlita.
