Why isn't Itzik Jakobson's Yahrzeit Exact?

We do not know the exact date of death of Itzik Jakobson. According to Jewish tradition, if the exact date of death is not known, the yahrzeit of a person can be observed on any day, as long as it is that same day every year. Since that is the case, we observe the yahrzeit of Itzik Jakobson on 18 Tammuz. If you know the exact date of death of Itzik Jakobson, contact us via the contact page.
