Maalot Tzur

According to the protesters, Hershy Landau is expected to head the "Maalot Tzur" organization following the passing of its founder, Yaakov Farber (of blessed memory). The police deployed large forces and secured Landau's home, after it was agreed with the protest organizers that the demonstrators would not approach the site.

The founder of the "Maalot Tzur" project for integrating ultra-Orthodox Jews into the IDF has passed away after battling a serious illness. Rabbi Farber, a father of five, acted on behalf of his rabbis to create adapted service tracks while maintaining a Torah-observant lifestyle. "If people want to get along — it is possible to get along," he often said.
