Savran (Hasidic dynasty)

 Savran  is a Hasidic dynasty founded by Rebbe Moshe Zvi Giterman. Savran is a town in present-day Ukraine.

The previous Admor of Savran was Rebbe Yissakhar Dov Hager of Har Nof, Jerusalem (died in 2013). He was a renowned Torah Scholar and served as a Dayan on the Jerusalem Rabbinic Court. He was the son in law of Rabbi Avraham Leib Klein who served as the Mashgiach of the Rizhner Yeshiva in Jerusalem.

In 2013, he was succeeded by his second eldest son, Rebbe Yitzchak Meir Hager, as Savraner Rebbe. The Rebbe lived few years in Ashdod but used to come to Jerusalem every Shabbat and Yom Tov to conduct prayer services and Tishim in the Beis Medrash of his late father. He often visited throughout the week to deliver Torah classes as well as conduct meeting where he councils individuals. He serves as a Dayan on the Ashdod "HaYashar V'Hatov" Beis Din.

The Savraner Rebbe is currently living in Har Nof, Jerusalem.
