 Two top haredi (ultra-Orthodox) rabbis have sent a letter to their constituents calling on them to keep the Health Ministry’s coronavirus regulations over the Sukkot holiday, which starts Friday at sundown.

Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky and Rabbi Gershon Edelstein, the two leading rabbis of the non-hassidic haredi world, have instructed that people should pray as much as possible in open spaces and that “anyone who can help make this possible will be greatly rewarded.”
