Ultra-Orthodox Jews Serve in Elite Israeli Intelligence Units

An unusual interview has revealed the extensive involvement of ultra-Orthodox Jews, known as Haredim, in top-secret units within Israel's security agencies. The interview, conducted by Aharon Zaltz, a graduate of the 'Kodkod' program, features a masked and unidentified individual who discusses the Haredim's participation in highly classified operations. These individuals are reportedly involved in developing groundbreaking technological means for complex operational needs, such as within Unit 81, a unit known for its advanced technological development.

The reason for the public's lack of awareness is the highly secretive nature of these operations. The 'Kodkod' program facilitates the integration of many yeshiva graduates into units that were previously considered inaccessible to them. These Haredim are now full partners in complex and discreet missions that are expected to be recorded in future history books.

The interview highlights the opportunity for new participants to join the upcoming cohort of the 'Kodkod' program, with limited spots remaining. The program aims to integrate Haredim into sensitive roles within the defense and intelligence sectors, leveraging their unique skills and perspectives.
