Son of senior rabbi and mentor to Litzman smuggled into Bnei Brak for religious event

The son of a senior rabbi who heads Health Minister Yaakov Litzman’s Gur Hasidic sect was smuggled into the locked-down city of Bnei Brak in an ambulance along with his wife this morning to participate in a circumcision ceremony, Channel 13 reports.

The son of the Admor of Gur Yaakov Aryeh Alter violated the “restricted zone” imposed by the government which limits Bnei Brak entrances to residents, police, rescue services, those bringing essential supplies and journalists.

It is not immediately clear to whom the ambulance belongs, but the Magen David Adom emergency service says it is not theirs.
