- The Slonim Rebbe issued an unprecedented audio message urging followers to vote for United Torah Judaism.
- The directive is a historic departure from the Slonim Hasidic dynasty's tradition.
- Hasidic followers responded with excitement and pledged full mobilization for the election.
- The message instructs followers on the obligation to vote in the Knesset elections.
In a historic and unusual move for the Slonim Hasidic dynasty, an audio message from the senior Rebbe was distributed to the Hasidic community on Tuesday. In the recording, the Rebbe instructs all his followers on the clear obligation to vote in the Knesset elections for the United Torah Judaism and the Sabbath list (Gimel).
This action is considered particularly dramatic given the Hasidic community's long-standing tradition of refraining from using such direct audio methods. The move was met with great excitement and full mobilization among Slonim Hasidim to implement the Rebbe's directive ahead of the election day.
