Just 24 hours after standing under the chupah, Avraham Binyamin Yosef, a son of HaGaon HaRav Yaakov Yosef escaped tragedy, walking away from a serious vehicular crash.

R’ Avraham Binyamin was married in Yerushalayim’s Nof Yerushalayim Hall on Monday night (eve of 12 Adar 5772). On his way to sheva brochos the following evening, while traveling on Route 3 they stopped for a red traffic signal. An Egged bus however came from behind, traveling quickly according to reports, and smashed into the car of the young couple. The vehicle was catapulted into the intersection. Friends of the chosson and kallah report “it was nothing short of a miracle. They escaped unharmed”.

Another vehicle was put at their disposal and they traveled to sheva brochos.

David, an eyewitness to the accident told Kikar Shabbat “It was a miracle. It must have been zchus avos that saved them”.
