Former President Trump visited the Ohel of the Lubavitcher Rebbe on Monday afternoon. Trump’s visit today is seen as a powerful gesture of solidarity with Jewish communities on the one-year anniversary of the deadly Hamas attack on southern Israel.

Trump donned a Yarmulka, said a short prayer at the Ohel, and placed a small stone on the Kever of the Rebbe. He then went inside, where he posed for some photos with Chabad officals.

Trump’s stop at the Ohel comes after a previously planned visit to Gottlieb’s restaurant in Williamsburg was canceled due to the sudden passing of the restaurant’s proprietor.

Security at the Ohel was extremely tight, as Trump remains under presidential-level protection following a second assassination attempt at his golf course in Miami Beach, Florida, last month.

After his time at the Ohel, Trump is expected to return to Florida to attend a memorial event for the victims of the October 7 Hamas attack. YWN has a reporter at the Florida event, and will bring you updates in live time as well.

TRUMP HAS ARRIVED AT THE OHEL

Statement by the Trump campaign released as Former President Donald Trump is expected to visit the Ohel of the Lubavitcher Rebbe.

Snipers outside…. Torah learning and Davening inside….

NOTHING WILL STOP THEM: A former president may be visiting the Ohel in a few minutes…. but it’s business as usual for the Chabad Bochrim, as they wrap Tefillin on Yidden returning to Hashem ahead of Yom Kippur.

Crowds are gathering with anticipation, hoping to catch a glimpse of Trump. The area around the Ohel is being cleared in preparation for his possible arrival.
