During his weekly shiur, the former Rishon Letzion Rav Yitzchok Yosef addressed the ongoing war with Iran, speaking about the great nissim that have taken place while also urging the public to strictly follow safety instructions.

At the opening of the shiur, Rav Yosef spoke about the many miracles that have occurred in recent days.

“We must thank Hakadosh Boruch Hu for the nissim and niflaos that we experienced this past week,” he said. “In other places many were harmed, and here as well there were some injuries, but relatively speaking there were nissim and niflaos. We must thank Hakadosh Boruch Hu that He should continue to perform nissim and niflaos for us.”

At the same time, Rav Yosef emphasized that recognizing the miracles does not lessen the obligation to follow safety guidelines.

He stressed the importance of carefully observing the directives of Pikud HaOref.

“One must pay attention to all the instructions,” he said. “V’nishmartem me’od lenafshoseichem — if a person hears a siren, he should not take it lightly. He must do what needs to be done, as the halacha requires.”
