An Iranian cluster missile strike in Bnei Brak on Friday night at about 2 a.m. caused minor damage to the trisim (shutters) and windows of the home of Degel HaTorah chairman Moshe Gafni.

Baruch Hashem, Gafni, and his wife had entered a shelter when the siren sounded and were unharmed.

On Motzei Shabbos,  Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu called Gafni to inquire about his well-being and that of his wife.

Gafni thanked him for his concern and said that b’Chasdei Hashem, they experienced a neis and did not experience injuries or serious damage.

Later that evening, the Deputy Mayor of Bnei Brak and chairman of Degel HaTorah’s municipal department, Menachem Shapira, visited Gafni to check on him and his family.

Chareidi journalist Yisrael Cohen, who lives nearby and is close to Gafni, described the dramatic moments: “I was with my family in the shelter, and suddenly we heard a massive explosion. After a few minutes, I left the house on Damascus Eliezer Street toward Yitzchak Nissim Street. I saw Gafni standing at the building entrance. We watched the burning cars until the fire crews arrived. Gafni told those present about the great neis, and the neighbors also said that it was a neis that only property was damaged. A meter forward or backward, and everything could have looked completely different. This was a Pesach neis for the Gafni family and the neighborhood residents.”
