It was true drama in the Sanz Beis Medrash in Netanya on the first day of Chol Hamoed Sukkos, Tuesday, with reports indicating the fire broke out in the room adjacent to the beis medrash.

When chassidim realized what was taking place they ran to the Aron Kodesh and removed the Sifrei Torah, running with them outside the building. The Sanzer Rebbe Shlita was also present, and chassidim assisted him in leaving the building immediately as well.

Some of the chassidim worked to extinguish the blaze immediately and B’chasdei Hashem, due to the awareness of mispallalim, the matter ended without any injuries.
