The Shas party is expanding memorial events for Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, after the High Court of Justice and the Attorney General prevented the central rally planned at Binyanei Ha'Uma with government funding. The party will distribute tens of thousands of challah separation kits to women who will host events in their homes, through the "Nashot Shas" organization. The kits include instructional booklets and pamphlets in memory of Rabbi Ovadia. The party reports high demand, with thousands of women already registered to host. It is estimated that tens of thousands of women will participate in the home events, which will take place alongside events in halls and community centers. The party emphasizes that all events are funded solely from party funds, without state money, and focus on Rabbi Ovadia's Torah legacy without a political message. The move is seen as expanding activities after legal restrictions prevented the state event.
