In light of the new draft law and a growing number of Knesset bills attacking Halacha and the chareidi way of life, Rabbanan Gedolei Yisrael Shlita are calling on the tzibur to take part in Yom Kippur Koton ahead of Rosh Chodesh Sivan, this Thursday, 29 Iyar 5774.
Rabbonim point out that the current government has been pushing ahead many laws that chas v’sholom will compromise the future of Yiddishkheit in Eretz Yisrael as well as cutting funding for avreichim and their families.
Rabbonim call on the tzibur to take part in Yom Kippur Koton in one’s shul and beis medrash around Israel.

If only they had called a Yom Kippur Katon to help the Jewish soldiers during the Lebanon War or Operation Cast Lead, then maybe there wouldn’t be so much backlash now.
