Flatbush blackened: funeral procession of Rosh Yeshiva Torah Vodaath

Thousands of Haredi Jewry in the United States attended on Friday the funeral procession of Hagaon Rabbi Chaim Israel Halevi Belsky zt"l, Rosh Yeshiva Torah Vodaath in Flatbush and one of the leading Roshei Yeshivos and poskim in the United States, who died on Thursday night at the age of 78.

The funeral procession left on Friday at 10:00 am New York time from Yeshiva Torah Vodaath, Flatbush attended by Roshei Yeshivas and Gedolei Torah in the US.

Hespedim were given by Roshei Yeshiva, his children and his son-in-law the benefactor Shlomo Yehuda Rechnitz.

The coffin will arrive in Israel tomorrow - Sunday - and the funeral procession will leave from the plaza of the Mir Yeshiva in Jerusalem in Beis Israel, estimated at 19:00 pm, through the Kamenitz Yeshiva on David Street, to Har Hamenuchos – where he will be buried in the Rabbonim plot.

May his soul be bound in the bond of life.
