Haredi protest blocks Route 57 near Beit Lid and Kfar Yona
Police said Route 57 was closed on Tuesday in both directions in the area of Beit Lid Junction and toward Kfar Yona because of a Haredi protest against the arrest of draft evaders. The disruption affected eastbound traffic on Route 57 and westbound traffic near the same stretch, according to the police update.
The demonstration was linked to anger over the detention of draft dodgers, prompting the road closure in the central region. No further details were given about the duration of the blockage or whether arrests were made at the scene.
