1:23PM IL: Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital officials’ announced the bitter news moments ago. HaGaon HaRav Chaim Ovadia Yosef  ZTVK”L was niftar a short time ago, Monday, 3 Marcheshvan 5774, after his bodily organs collapsed despite doctors’ best efforts. The gadol hador was 93-years-old.

On Sunday night the doctors decided to place him back into a medically induced coma and on a respirator in the hope of stabilizing his condition and permitting his frail body to heal. A systemic blood infection was diagnosed earlier in the day. During the night the gadol hador’s condition took a dramatic turn for the worse and earlier this morning, the rav’s family was summoned to his bedside.

Chalav Yisroel Kosher Milk NOT Affected by New WIC Guidelines

Leave a Comment

agudathmidwestIn response to several questions from community members:

Ohio’s Women Infants and Children (WIC) program recently issued new guidelines stating that WIC recipients can only purchase store- brand milk. WIC recipients who require Chalav Yisroel Kosher milk (which is not store-brand) will still be able to purchase this milk as they have in the past.

Ohio WIC will be reminding designated stores of the kosher exception to the “store-brand policy”.

Agudath Israel has worked closely with the Ohio WIC office for many years and they have repeatedly showed sensitivity to our communities’ religious dietary needs. We thank them for their prompt attention to this matter.
