[Avodah] How should one wash their hands upon waking in the morning on Yom Kippur?

[Rabbi]

And see the Ketzos Hashulchan (Badei Hashulchan 2:10) where he says that on a regular day, washing until the knuckles doesn't remove the Ruach Raah even Bedieved. And the only reason we wash our hands on Yom Kippur until the knuckles is since there's not a lot of Tumah on Yom Kippur.
