Tens of Mitzvah Tanks drove by 770 on Yud Alef Nissan on their way to parade through the streets of Brooklyn and Manhattan, while large crowds of onlookers cheered them on.
This year’s parade features 73 Mitzvah Tanks, symbolizing the Rebbe’s 73 years of nesius. The parade is a symbol of unity and love for the Rebbe, and an opportunity to spread the joy and message of Pesach and Yud Alef Nissan to people from all walks of life.
The parade then continued to Grand Army Plaza and through the streets of Brooklyn, before dividing up and crossing all three bridges into Manhattan. Once there, the tanks split up into locations where bochurim and children distributed thousands of shmurah matzahs, put tefillin on with hundreds of men, and spread the message of Rebbe’s message to countless Jews and non-Jews.
