Various Rabbis
Nisan 18, 5768
Question
If I am an israeli cohen davvening with a minyan in chutz laaretz on second day yomtov, must I say Birkay Cohanim with the minyan(and with a brocha)?
Answer
The Halacha does not oblige you to say Birkat Cohanim (you have to leave the shul in Chazarat Hashatz before Retze). If you do go up and bless Am Yisrael - you have done a Mitzva.
