Q. I have heard people say they “don’t sell chometz gomur.” Why not?
A. A common method for relinquishing ownership of chometz before Pesach is to sell it, typically through an agent, to a gentile. The chometz remains in the house, in a closed-off area that has been rented to its new owner. After Pesach the agent repurchases the chometz on your behalf (and the rental period ends).

As is well known, Rav Chaim Kanievsky makes a siyum on kol haTorah kulah every year, completing Talmud Bavli,Talmud Yerushalmi, Tosefta, Sifri, Mishnayos, Shulchan Aruch, Rambam, and other segments of Torah.
The most recent siyum made by the venerable gaon took place this morning, Erev Pesach, following the vasikin minyan at the Lederman Shul on Rechov Rashbam in Bnei Brak, where Rav Chaim regularly davens.
In addition to a large number of bechorim who joined so that they would not have to fast the customary taanis bechorim on Erev Pesach, a large crowd gathered to watch as the hadol hador made a siyum on all of Shas.

Poland should follow Greece in stepping up pressure on Germany to pay billions of euros in damages for Nazi occupation during World War Two, a lawmaker in charge of Warsaw’s reparations campaign said on Thursday.
Greece’s parliament voted a day earlier to launch a diplomatic push to press its case — and Berlin responded by reiterating its position that all such claims by invaded countries had long been settled.
Arkadiusz Mularczyk, who heads the Polish parliamentary committee on reparations, said in a tweet that the Greek vote showed WW2 compensation had become an international issue.
“It’s time for a decision from the Polish Sejm (lower house of Parliament),” added the lawmaker from the ruling nationalist Law and Justice party.

Pesach is one of the most wasteful times of the year in Israel, JPOST reports.
According to data published by food rescue organization Leket Israel and accounting firm BDO, 106,000 tons of food, worth approximately NIS 1.126 billion ($313 million), goes to waste during the month of Pesachl – about 14% higher than regular monthly waste.
