A large fire broke out last night at the 'Rabbeinu HaGadol' complex in the city of Haditch, Ukraine, located near the grave of the founder of Chabad Hasidism, Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi, known as the 'Baal HaTanya.' According to initial reports, the fire consumed the main building in the complex and caused severe damage estimated at millions of dollars. No casualties were reported. The circumstances of the fire remain unclear. One assessment is that the fire broke out due to an electrical short circuit, but authorities are investigating all avenues of inquiry.
