The 'Resources' project which initiates Torah-oriented delegations of haredi rabbis and students from the Diaspora to Israel will bring its first delegation of 35 French students for a 7-day visit to Israel.

During the visit, students will take tours in Jerusalem, Hevron and the north, including holy places. They will also meet with Sephardi chief rabbi Yitzhak Yosef, Interior Minister Aryeh Deri, Shas faction leader Yoav Ben-Tzur and other government officials.

The initiative is spearheaded by the World Union of Sephardic Rabbis, which aims to deepen connections between the haredi population in the Diaspora and the leadership in Israel.
