A crowd of 5,000 gathered in front of the Eiffel tower Sunday for a Menorah lighting event organized by Rabbi Shmuel Azimov of Bais Lubavitch. The Chief Rabbi of Paris, Rabbi David Mashash, was honored with the lighting of the candles.
Afterwards, singer Yoni Shlomo entertained the crowd with chanukah songs. The event was broadcast live together with the lighting at the Kotel and in the Rebbe’s room.
