Serious concern has spread across the Torah world following a sharp deterioration in the condition of Grodno rosh yeshiva Rabbi Yitzchok Hacker, a member of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah of Degel HaTorah.
According to information received shortly after midnight Israeli time on Motzaei Shabbos, Rav Hecker lost consciousness while hospitalized and is now described as being in immediate, life-threatening danger.
Family members are at his bedside at Sheba Medical Center, where he was rushed to the intensive care unit.
Earlier in the week, on Thursday, the rosh yeshiva underwent a complex medical procedure that included the amputation of part of his leg due to a severe infection.
All are asked to daven for Yitzchok ben Nechama.
