Chernobyl Chassidus in Israel fighting with Sefardim over Shul
A Shul that was originally given by the Israeli Government to Chernobyl Chassidus to divide in half with a Sefardy Kehilla is now the center of a large dispute. The problems arose after the Chassidim got angry that not-so-Chareidi Sefardim were given the other half of the Shul. Also Chernobyl move up the dividing wall, in effect reducing the size of the Sefardy portion. This led the Sefardy Chief Rabbi to get involved. The Chernobyle Rebbe met with Sefardy Chief Rabbi to settle the issue. The Chief Rabbi said that by now the issue was way out of hand and would have to be dealt with in the Israeli courts.

The problem started when they accepted the building from the Israeli government. If you want to ensure kedusha and tahara in a shul or mosad ha'torah - the source must also be one of kedusha and tahara - not the Tziyoinim!
