Wrapped in a Talis, a group of Tzfatis smashed through the front door of 770 yesterday to reenact the distribution of dollars, which the Rebbe would do every Sunday between 1986 and 1992. This incident caps month-long terror campaign in which the Rebbe’s Library was broken into, a Gabbai was beaten up and Tishrei guests were threatened not to visit the Ohel.
On Sunday, hundreds of people attended a Sukkah party at the Hallandale Beach Hebrew School. The event was organized by Rabbi Levi and Dassy Tennenhaus, directors of Chabad of South Broward County, Florida.
Yesterday, Yossi and Sterna Zwiebel of Crown Heights took their children on a Chol Hamoed trip to the Prospect Park Zoo. The children made sure to bring along a set of Lulav and Esrog, and asked any Jewish person they encountered if they would partake in the Mitzva.
Early Sunday evening, the street on the corner of Kingston and Montgomery filled with excited children as they anticipated the start of a special Simchas Beis Hashoeva program just for them.
Over 75 men, women and children enjoyed great food and atmosphere at the annual Lubavitch of Scotland Succos barbecue, held in the Sukkah of Rabbi Chaim and Mrs. Sora Jacobs, Lubavitch shluchim in Scotland for 44 years.

A dozen or so Israelis, most of them in their early twenties and right out of the military, arrived for work last month in a dingy red brick warehouse in Brooklyn’s East Williamsburg neighborhood. The warehouse—with a sign that still reads “Q-Mart: Import, Export, Wholesale”—serves as the seasonal home of Sukkah Depot, a company that sets up shop each year to sell only one product: pre-fab sukkos.
Coinciding with the arrival of Sukkot, the Chosen People Ministries is holding the grand opening of its new multi-million dollar Messianic Jewish Center in Brooklyn, and along with it, a strategic plan aimed at targeting members of the ultra-Orthodox community for conversion.
