On September, 24, at 7 AM many people appeared in the yard of the Jewish school of Kherson. The first was the rabbi of Kherson and his assistants. In a while a van came with chikens for the ritual.
It is worth mentioning that every year sees more and more Jews who would like to fulfill this ceremony. But this time so many people came that rabbi with his assistants began to question if the chickens would be enough for everyone. But the chickens were enough for about 200 people and they were able to do the ceremony.
Closer to 8 AM students of the Jewish school appeared in the yard of the school and the children from kindergarten. This day many were accompanied by their parents who immediately proceeded to Kaparot. Assistants helped students and children to fulfill the ceremony. Rabbi Yosef advised all the people how to do this ceremony. Having appropriate experience, many did the ceremony themselves till everyone did the ceremony.
