An emergency gathering of hundreds of religious leaders took place in Jerusalem, organized by the Council of Torah Sages of the Shas party. The event, attended by approximately 200 yeshiva deans, community rabbis, heads of institutions, and synagogue sextons, was described as a "historic emergency convention." The stated purpose was to strengthen the Shas movement in what was called a "fateful campaign."

Senior rabbis, referred to as "Gedolei Yisrael" (Great Ones of Israel), issued a call to action, stating, "In the face of the all-out war by the left against the holy things of Israel, it is incumbent upon everyone to enlist in the campaign and act to strengthen the world of Torah, Torah learners, and Jewish identity." The convention's theme was "Your elders will tell you, and you shall do as they instruct you."
