The Belzer Rebbe Shlita visited the Kosel at 2:00am Wednesday morning 10 Adar 5773 ahead of his grandson’s bar mitzvah, celebrated a few hours later in the Belz Beis Medrash. The rebbe assisted the chosson bar mitzvah Elimelech Nosson to put on tefilin as thousands of chassidim looked on.

When the Rebbe arrived at the Kosel during the night he recited Tikun Chatzos.

On Wednesday evening, the bar mitzvah took place in the Ulam HaTischin in the Belz Beis Medrash and it was broadcast live to dozens of locations around Eretz Yisrael and the world by the Belz broadcast system.
