Rav Yehuda Silman, prominent posek from Bnei Brak, was released from a New York hospital after collapsing during a visit to the United States, and is expected to return to Eretz Yisroel for further medical treatment in the coming days.

Following several tense hours, Rav Silman – who traveled to the United States to garner financial support for Shuvu – was discharged after being hospitalized for approximately half a day due to the sudden incident during his trip.

Sources indicated that upon his return, he will likely undergo a cardiac catheterization procedure next week at a hospital in Israel as part of continued care.

In a moving scene captured on video, his close friend, Rav Yitzchok Zilberstein, rav of the Ramat Elchanan neighborhood, visited Rav Silman’s bais medrash, Kehillas Chassidim, where he recited Tehillim on his behalf. Afterward, he conducted a Mi Shebeirach for his recovery along with all those in need of healing.

The public is asked to daven for the full recovery of Rav Yehuda ben Leah.
