The tzibur is being asked to be mispallel for HaGaon HaRav Aharon Yehuda Leib Shteinman Shlita whose condition has taken a slight turn for the worse.

The Rosh Yeshiva was taken to Bnei Brak’s Mayanei HaYeshua Hospital complaining of general malaise and difficulty breathing on Sunday, 25 Kislev. He was admitted to an intensive care unit, diagnosed with pneumonia.

During the week, hospital director Prof. Mordechai Ravid reported an improvement in the elderly Gadol Hador’s condition, stating with a measure of caution he hopes the Rosh Yeshiva would be released for Shabbos.

However, now, about an hour and a half before Shabbos, the tzibur is being asked to be mispallel for Rav Shteinman as his condition has s deteriorated “slightly”. No details are being given.

The tzibur is asked to continue being mispallel for Aharon Yehuda Leib ben Gittel Faiga bsoch kol cholei yisrael.
