Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef Condemns Media Incitement Against Yeshiva Students

Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef condemned what he described as media incitement against yeshiva students during his weekly Torah lesson at Jerusalem’s Yazdim synagogue on Saturday night, October 10. He protested disparaging labels directed at students and stressed the merit of Torah study. “Yeshiva students save the generation; yeshiva students save all of Israel,” he said, describing the criticism against them as severe incitement. Rabbis Yitzhak Ezrachi and Asher Weiss spoke before his lesson, and Rabbis Avraham Yosef and Moshe Yosef also attended.
