Dubai Flight Survivor Visits Hasidic Court to Give Thanks

One of the four individuals who survived a dramatic incident aboard a flight from Dubai arrived at the Nadvorna Hasidic court in Bnei Brak on Thursday to recite the "HaGomel" blessing. The blessing, traditionally recited after surviving a dangerous situation, was given during morning prayers in the presence of the Nadvorna Rebbe.

During the Torah reading, the survivor ascended to the Torah, recited the blessing with emotion, and was honored with lifting the Torah scroll. Following the blessing, the Nadvorna Rebbe spontaneously began singing "It is good to thank God," with the entire congregation joining in a powerful rendition that filled the synagogue.

After the Musaf prayer, the Hasidim and the survivor gathered for a celebratory "L'Chaim" (a toast with liquor) in the Hasidic sukkah, where they collectively thanked and praised God for His great kindness and the miraculous survival.

The incident, described as a "great miracle," occurred the day prior. Reports indicate that authorities in the United Arab Emirates are investigating the possibility that the event was an act of terrorism. One of the rescuers, a doctor who subdued an attacker, recounted that the pilot stated he wanted to live and was bleeding heavily.
