The Levaya of Hagaon HaRav Chaim Yisroel Belsky ZATZAL, one of the Roshei Yeshiva of Yeshiva Torah Vodaas in Flatbush, and a leading Posek in the United States will take place on Friday Erev Shabbos, Parshas Yisro in the Yeshiva, 425 East 9th Street – Brooklyn, NY at 10:00AM.
To accommodate the massive crowd expected the Yeshiva is working closely with NYPD and asks for your cooperation.
The main Bais HaMedresh and the dining room will be designated for men. The Yeshivas auditorium will be designated for women. The Yeshiva K’Tana Dining room will be designated for Kohanim.
All areas outside of the Beis HaMedresh will have live sound and video hook up.
East 9th street will be closed to vehicle traffic.
Parking in the area will be difficult, so the Yeshiva is encouraging the use of mass transportation.
Please use Coney Island Avenue and Ditmas Avenue, as a drop off area, as traffic around the Yeshiva blocks will be congested.
