Vizhnitz rebbe: Open all the schools
Rabbi Yisrael Hager, leader of Vizhnitz hasidic group, orders educational institutions to reopen, defying coronavirus lockdown.
The Vizhnitz Rebbe, Rabbi Yisrael Hager, on Saturday evening ordered that all of the Vizhnitz educational institutions be reopened.
Rabbi Hager, a senior member of Agudat Yisrael, gave the order during the third afternoon meal on Shabbat (the Jewish Sabbath) in his Bnei Brak synagogue.
MK Avigdor Liberman, chairman of the Yisrael Beytenu party, tweeted, "Bibi's landlord has gone crazy, and we're all paying the high price."
Meanwhile, earlier this month, Lithuanian-haredi leader Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky ordered schools to close due to the spread of coronavirus among the haredi community.
The haredi community is made up of several sectors, including both the Lithuanian-haredi community and several hasidic groups, one of which is Vizhnitz.

"Following outcry, Rabbi Yisroel Hager, leader of the Vizhnitz sect, says all must follow the health rules, opposes violence against police"
Maybe he was afraid UOJ would expose him
(R' Nuchem Rosenberg has been shreying for years that the Vizhnitzer is a molester)
