  • Belz Rebbe released from hospital after successful treatment.
  • He returned home to Kiryat Belz in Jerusalem.
  • His absence caused concern among thousands of followers.
  • His son led prayers in his place.
  • He is expected to resume his routine before Rosh Hashanah.

The Belz Rebbe, a prominent leader in the Haredi public, has been released from Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem and returned to his home in Kiryat Belz. His release follows a successful, planned medical procedure.

The medical team reported that the treatment was fully successful and expressed satisfaction with the Rebbe's recovery rate, which permitted his discharge. The Rebbe had arrived at the hospital on Sunday morning for a series of tests after feeling unwell.

During his hospitalization and testing, the Rebbe, Rabbi Yissachar Dov Rokeach, missed the first, significant "Selichot" (penitential prayers) service held at the community's main study hall in Jerusalem. His son, Rabbi Aharon Mordechai Rokeach, led the public prayers in his stead.

The Rebbe's absence had caused considerable concern among his thousands of followers in Israel and abroad, who held numerous prayers for his well-being. The Hasidic community now anticipates his gradual return to his daily routine in anticipation of Rosh Hashanah.
