Despite a small group of Peleg protesters out in the streets inconveniencing hundreds of thousands of people, stealing their time, clashing with police and destroying property, tens of thousands of Yeshiva Bochrim have begun the winter Zman at Yeshivos around Eretz Yisroel.

Attached are photos taken in Ponevezh Yeshiva, where the Zman began with words from the Ponevezh Roshei Yeshiva HaGaon HaRav Gershon Edelstein, HaGaon HaRav Baruch Dov Povarsky, and HaRav Eliezer Kahaneman.
