A festive and uplifting atmosphere filled the "Or Haviv" synagogue, headed by First Rabbi of Israel Yitzhak Yosef, during the Hoshanah Rabbah prayer service. Contrary to rumors, events at the Nova complex for Simchat Torah will proceed as planned. The highlight of the gathering occurred after the holiday prayers and the traditional "aravah" (willow) ritual. A special thanksgiving ceremony was held with great emotion, attended by the Chief Rabbi and the public, to thank God for the "great and revealed miracle" of the Dubai flight incident. All passengers on the flight were miraculously saved from a severe disaster. Following the thanksgiving ceremony, attendees passed before Rabbi Yosef, who warmly welcomed everyone, smiled at each person, and blessed the crowd with a 'good final sealing' wish for the Day of Judgment.
