There are a number of [[Chabad holidays|days marked by the Chabad movement as special days]]. Major holidays include the dates of the release of the Rebbes of the movement from Russian persecution, others corresponded to ''Yom Huledes'' (birthday), ''histalkus'' (passing), and other life events. The days marking the leaders' release, are celebrated by the Chabad movement as ''Yemei Geulah'' ("Days of Liberation"). The most special day is [[Yud Tes Kislev]]—the liberation of the Alter Rebbe, the founder of the Chabad movement. The day is also called ''Rosh Hashanah LaChassidus'' ("New Year of Chassidus").<ref name="sichoscustom"/> The birthdays celebrated each year include [[Chai Elul]] (18 Elul), the birthday of the Alter Rebbe,<ref name="Elul customs">September 6, 2012.
