Late Sunday evening, on October 30, 2022, a Mitzvah Tank parked in the heart of SOHO, on Broadway was defaced with pro-Palestinian graffiti.
“The New York Police Department is taking this incident very seriously and we thank them for their strong response. We will keep you updated as the investigation continues,” said Rabbi Yehuda Pevzner, who runs the Mitzvah Tank.
Mitzvah Tank NYC, under the direction of the Rebbe, proudly serves the communities of lower Manhattan, offering Jewish people the opportunity to perform Mitzvot. In addition to that, the mitzvah tanks have become involved with volunteer work with those less fortunate, including the large homeless population whom they have come to befriend over the years.
“Our fleet of Mitzvah Tanks and volunteers are not intimidated or deterred by this hateful incident. In fact, we are already back to our usual programming today.” Pevzner emphasized.
