The Satmar Rebbe announced Thursday that there would be an emergency gathering on Shabbos afternoon in the Beis Medresh Hagadol in Kiryas Yoel in the wake of the recent tragedy.
The sun has set during the day in such a tragic way. Oy Vey Oy Vey. It has shaken up the heart of all of Klal Yisreal throughout the world. All the many tzedakos that he distributed will go before him, all the Tefilos said in the Beis Medresh in Williamsburg, and the many hours of Torah learning that were learned in his zechus will open the gates for him.
The philanthropist Reb Yitzchak Rosenberg z"l, Rosh Kahal of Satmar flew with the Admor for a Shabbos in Meron at the end of the winter. He donated one million dollars to cover the expenses of the Shabbos and danced on the bleachers before the hadlakah.
