Once again, concern has gripped the Torah world with the news of a serious decline in the health of Rav Yehuda Ades, Rosh Yeshiva of Kol Yaakov and a senior member of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah of Degel HaTorah.
Rav Ades was hospitalized this morning for the second time in a week.
The 87-year-old rosh yeshiva was rushed today to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Yerushalayim following a sharp deterioration in his condition caused by a severe case of pneumonia.
Doctors have described his condition as critical, and he is currently under intensive care and close supervision.
Mass tefillos were organized earlier this evening at the Kosel HaMaaravi in Yerushalayim and at the kever of the Chazon Ish in Bnei Brak.
Just last week, Rav Ades was hospitalized on Wednesday and was later released. Sadly, his condition has once again worsened significantly.
All are asked to daven for Rav Yehuda ben Chaya Esther.
