This statement does not seem to be correct.  See http://tinyurl.com/3ouq78x

Note the following from there.


Many people wear tefillin on chol hamoed in Eretz 
Yisroel, including some gedolim. However, some do 
it betzinoh so it is not so well known.

One such godol is the Erlau’er Rebbe. You can go 
in his beis medrash and see him with tefillin. He 
keeps the minhogim of his zeide, the Chasam 
Sofer, to wear tefillin on chol hamoed and daven nusach Ashkenaz.

There are even some minyonim where people wear 
tefillin on Chol Hamoed, like a Yekkishe minyan in Bnei Brak that I know of.

and   (I do not know what all of the ?  stand for.)


Here are a few names, a sampling of some past 
gedolim who wore tefillin on chol hamoed IN ERETZ 
YISROEL (either betzinoh or otherwise) –

Moreinu HaRav Schach, Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, 
Rav Michel Feinstein (eidem of the Brisker Rav), 
Pressburger Rav, and Rav Duschinsky, ??”?.

The ??”? ????? was in Eretz Yisroel. In his 
siddur Shaarei Shomayim, he has tefillin on chol hamoed.

Rav Moshe Feinstein ??”? writes in a teshuvoh 
that he knows of thousands of bnei Torah who put 
on tefillin on chol hamoed in Eretz Yisroel.

?????? ???”?, ??? ???? ????’ ????? ????”?, ???”? 
of Edah Charedis was heard also taking the 
position that someone whose minhog is to put on 
tefillin on chol hamoed cannot just suddenly drop it totally in Eretz Yisroel.

The above and previous post is based on what I 
heard about this inyan ??? ?? ?????? ??????? 
????”?, ??? ?????? ??????? ??????? ??????.

I think there is an Oberlander minyan in 
Yerushlayim where they wear tefillin on Chol 
Hamoed as well, if I recall correctly.
