After in Parshat Vayetze 5782, around one hundred people spent Shabbat in Ramla with our teacher, the esteemed Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, this is a wonderful opportunity to hear about the strengthening protest opposite the walls of Ayalon Prison.

In a fascinating conversation broadcasted on the Tzaddik Line (02-532-6502), Rabbi Aharon Schwartz spoke about the holy organization of the students and chassidim of Breslov Shuvu Banim, along with supporters and admirers of our teacher Rav Berland shlit"a - the burning ember only continues to strengthen in anticipation of the tzaddik.

"Despite the Ramla Municipality fighting us and sending inspectors who repeatedly dismantle our camp, we do not despair, and each time we raise everything back up again."

Rabbi Schwartz describes the trials faced by the students of Rav Berland shlit"a, who, despite all the difficult years of persecution, continue to believe and cling to their rabbi, the true tzaddik.

"Thanks to the donations, we managed to secure cooked food for Shabbat and obtained large water containers before Shabbat. This was the first Shabbat in Ramla since our teacher Rav Berland shlit"a entered prison. Tents were set up, and even entire families with children came to spend Shabbat with the tzaddik. The highlight was an 80-year-old grandmother who spent Shabbat in a tent with her family."

"Many people surpassed themselves and gave up the comforts they are used to, sacrificing for Shabbat with the tzaddik."

"It was a wonderful Shabbat, the Maariv prayer lasted about three hours with songs and dances, and the Shacharit prayer about five hours. We had with us the Torah scroll that wandered with our teacher Rav Berland in exile."

"The surrounding residents and even the prison staff truly appreciated all our activities. Although there are more people on Shabbat, throughout the week there are people in the area, young men and yeshiva students."

"The most absurd thing is that they endlessly harass us, but on Motza'ei Shabbat, when Arabs came there with Palestinian flags and sang songs of hatred against the State and the people of Israel, the police protected them."

"The most important thing is for the public to participate in the prayer rallies for our teacher Rav Berland shlit"a, it is important to come and pray for our rabbi. There is a rally every day opposite the prison in Ramla at the corner of Beitar Fighters Street, between 7 and 9."
