[VIDEO & PHOTOS IN EXTENDED ARTICLE]
Tens of thousands of people gathered at the Kosel for the last night of slichos before Yom Kippur to beseach Hakadosh Brachu Hu by the shaarei shamayim. The chief Rabbis of Israel, Rabbi Yonah Metzger and Rav Shlomo Amar led the tefilos – which drew such a crowd that not only was the whole Jewish Quarter closed to vehicles but at many places it was shut off to pedestrian traffic as well.
On behalf of all the photographers at Kuvien Images & YWN Israel, we wish you all a Gmar Chasima Tova!

Wow. What an awesome sight to see all the yidden davening.
How beautiful and inspiring it is. May all of B’nei Yisrael’s T’filos be answered L’tovah. May HaShem erase all the suffering and hardships and bring the mashiach very, very soon so we can ALL daven for him in Yerushalayim Habenuya.
The final slichos of 5772 will be erev rosh hashana (if moshiach isn’t here by then)
this is amazing!!
