Yitzchok Tuvia Weiss

He attended the local secular school in the mornings,[8] and took religious instruction with a private melamed in the afternoons.[9] Before World War II, at the age of 12,[10] he escaped Slovakia on a Kindertransport,[5] arranged by Aron Grünhut[4] and Sir Nicholas Winton, leaving his parents and family behind.Another student at the yeshiva was Moishe Sternbuch, who served alongside him as the Raavad (Rosh Av Beis Din) of Jerusalem.[9] After Dessler moved to Israel in the late 1940s, Weiss was appointed to serve as one of the executives of the Gateshead Kollel.[5] When the Israeli government first came out with certain restrictions on citizens to protect the country from the worst results of the coronavirus pandemic, such as limiting prayer quorums and other large gatherings of people, Weiss opposed those decisions, but retracted soon after.
