Police officers from the Etzion station in the Judea region were called to the "Rabbi Chaim Mi Ha'הר" yeshiva in Beitar Illit on K'f HaChaim Street following a report of an intoxicated young Haredi man disturbing public order, acting erratically, and assaulting passersby. Upon the officers' arrival and investigation, another intoxicated individual appeared, began interfering with their work, and physically pushed them. This individual was arrested at the scene.
According to the police, dozens of local residents then gathered around the officers, attempting to hinder their operation. These residents allegedly spread false reports that the arrest was related to someone evading military conscription. Additional forces were dispatched to the scene, and efforts are underway to restore public order.
