A prominent Rosh Yeshiva, M.H. Hirsch, currently in London for the World Torah Fund, spoke with a bride whose newlywed husband was arrested during their Sheva Brachot celebration. "This is a very difficult situation. God gives people trials. From this difficult experience, may you have blessing, success, and a happy life with the groom," Hirsch told the bride. The groom, Yaari Lieberman, was reportedly abducted by military police officers while walking with his bride. A military court ordered Lieberman to be held in military prison for 20 days. Despite the sentence, various aid organizations are working to have the decision overturned, hoping the young groom can at least celebrate the remainder of his Sheva Brachot with his wife.
