Kosher feast awaits Moshe, who's visiting Mumbai 9 years after 26/11 attacks

January 16, 2018 09:09

Chabad House is preparing to welcome Moshe, popular in public memory as baby Moshe, with special kosher food, snacks and juices when he arrives in the city on Tuesday.

Moshe is the sole surviving member of his family killed in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attack.

When terrorists struck Chabad House in November 2008, it was Sandra, Moshes nanny, who rescued him even as his father Rabbi Gavriel and mother Rivka were killed along with other guests.

Rabbi Israel Kozlovsky, co-director of Chabad-Lubavitch, Mumbai, who addressed media persons at the gate of Nariman House said the media should respect Moshes movements.

We are very excited by the visit of baby Moshe. We are preparing special Kosher food, snacks and juices for him. We hope he will remember his moments with us, said Israel.

Moshe will be unveiling a living memorial along with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on January 18. It will come up on the top two floors and will have the names of all the victims of the terror attack.
