Jerusalem Mass Prayer Rally Set for Thursday as Mir Yeshiva Leads March

Organizers present the event as a prayer-focused protest over renewed conscription enforcement.

Overview

  • The atzeres tefillah is scheduled to start at 2:30 p.m. at the city entrance, featuring Tehillim and special prayers and concluding around 4:30 p.m.
  • Mir Yeshiva announced a 2:10 p.m. procession from its Beis Yisroel campus, with talmidim walking together under the leadership of the roshei yeshiva and rabbonim.
  • Gedolei Yisroel and other senior rabbinic leaders will stand on balconies along Yirmiyahu and Sarei Yisrael to participate and lead the tefillos.
  • Police plan large deployments and will shut Route 1 between Latrun and Givat Shaul from noon, permitting entry to Jerusalem only for prearranged buses alongside broad local closures.
  • Organizers project attendance in the hundreds of thousands, a figure not independently verified, and Chabad’s Beis Din has called on its community to take part.
