  • Bar mitzvah for Mochi Reber's son held in Elad.
  • Event attended by prominent rabbis and public figures.
  • Rabbi Moshe Hillel Hirsch and Vizhnitz Rebbe offered blessings.
  • Hadassah Medical Center Director Professor Yoram Weiss was present.

A bar mitzvah celebration for the son of Mochi Reber, a senior figure in the United Torah Judaism party, took place Sunday evening at the Ataret Friedman halls in Elad. The event, held on the intermediate days of Sukkot, drew a large crowd of prominent individuals from religious and public life.

Among the distinguished guests were Rabbi Moshe Hillel Hirsch, a leading Torah scholar and Rosh Yeshiva, and the Vizhnitz Rebbe, who offered blessings to the bar mitzvah boy and his family. The gathering also included numerous other rabbis, public figures from across the Haredi community, and senior politicians and public officials.

Professor Yoram Weiss, Director of the Hadassah Medical Center, was also in attendance and approached the Torah leaders for blessings. The event was documented by photographer Shlomi Cohen.
