A first-of-its-kind delegation of Haredi startup founders arrived in London this week for a ‘road show’. Their journey started at a special reception given by Israel’s ambassador to the UK. The delegation includes founders of startups in the fields of cyber, health, agriculture, AI, and others. They will spend their time in London meeting potential investors, clients and partners. 
The reception at the Pillar Hotel was attended by representatives of British Airways, local business people, the Israeli commercial attaché, and the leadership of ‘Achim Global’ which organized the delegation.

State prosecutors in Manhattan have subpoenaed President Trump’s accounting firm to demand eight years of his personal and corporate tax returns, according to several people with knowledge of the matter.
The subpoena opens a new front in a wide-ranging effort to obtain copies of the president’s tax returns, which Trump initially said he would make public during the 2016 campaign but has since refused to disclose.
The subpoena was issued by the Manhattan district attorney’s office late last month, soon after it opened a criminal investigation into the role that the president and his family business played in hush-money payments made in the run-up to the election.

Following a Central Election Committee hearing on Sunday, the Attorney General’s Office issued a legal opinion on Sunday that the right-wing “Gatekeepers” group can patrol Arab voting stations during Tuesday’s vote so long as they remain 10 meters (33 feet) away and do not stray from their stated mission of providing a self-described “feeling of security” to ballot officials inside the polling stations.
According to the Times of Israel, the “Gatekeeper” initiative was launched last week, days after Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s failure to pass legislation in the Knesset that would have allowed cameras at the ballot box.

By Rabbi Berach Steinfeld
In Devarim, (28:10) the Torah tells Bnei Yisroel that the nations of the world will see Hashem upon you and will fear you. The gemara in Brachos (6a) says that this posuk is referring to the mitzvah of tefillin shel rosh.
In Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim (25:9-10) we pasken that one may not say any words between the putting on the tefillin shel yad and the tefillin shel rosh. If a person hears kaddish or kedusha, he should not answer, but rather pause and listen and then finish putting on the shel rosh.
