Chief Rabbi David Lau, who serves as president of the Rabbinical Court, ordered in an unusual move to suspend Dayan in the conversion court, after it refused to be vaccinated.

Rabbi Lau's office confirmed the details, noting that "the president of the Grand Court, Rabbi David Lau, has announced that he has a duty to all dayanim to be vaccinated. As long as this is legally possible, a dayan who is not vaccinated will not be able to serve in his position and endanger the court.

Over the past few weeks, the religious and ultra-Orthodox public has been waging a bitter war against Pike News distributors over vaccines and calling for immediate vaccination.

Many rabbis have issued calls regarding immunization with particularly harsh condemnation of those who oppose it. 

The great success of Operation Green Night, initiated by the Bnei Brak municipality, in which more than 4,000 residents were vaccinated last Thursday and enjoyed a cholent system - back yesterday (Monday) and this time in a dairy version.

To continue the momentum of vaccination and the media buzz that encourages more young people to get vaccinated, the municipality has announced 'Green Night 2'.

As of yesterday (Monday), the municipal vaccination complexes have been open from morning until 22:00 at night.

Thousands of family pizza trays were distributed to the many vaccinators who lined up at the HMOs' vaccination complexes.

Operation 'Green Night 2' and the distribution of pizza trays to vaccinators in Bnei Brak continues today. 

According to Mayor Rabbi Avraham Rubinstein: "In order to encourage residents to hurry up and get ahead of the vaccination date, the municipality has initiated a 'Green Night' operation platform designed to make Bnei Brak a city without disease and bring a peak of vaccinators back to routine, school and health before the holiday. "As a city that has experienced a great deal of morbidity, this time we are determined to bring about change at all costs. Indeed, the residents of Bnei Brak have once again proven that they obey the call of the great men of Israel and understand the importance of the vaccine for their health and the health of other residents."

Rabbi Avraham Konsky, director of the ultra-Orthodox department at Clalit, thanked the mayor and city officials for the welcome operation that increased the rate of immunization.

"As the largest health organization in Israel, Clalit is leading the vaccination campaign in the widest possible deployment and in the most perfect fit for all populations. We are proud to be part of the Green Night project in Bnei Brak and to lead the large vaccination campaign together with the municipality."
