Ultra-Orthodox Jewish boys gather around a water pool containing fish as older men stand by praying in the predominantly-Orthodox Jewish central Israeli city of Bnei Brak on September 21, 2023, as they perform the "Tashlich" ritual during which "sins are cast into the water to the fish", ahead of the Day of Atonement, or Yom Kippur, the most important day in the Jewish religious calendar.
