Radical Haredim from the Jerusalem Faction have announced large-scale protests scheduled for tomorrow at 4:00 PM in Jerusalem and the Gush Dan region. The demonstrations are a response to the renewed arrests of draft evaders.
A statement released by the group declared that the protests were ordered by their leader following the recent arrests of yeshiva students and kollel scholars by military authorities. The statement cited "the sin of Torah study" and accused the Haredi establishment of abandoning these individuals. The group asserts that the protests aim to protest the "desecration of the honor of Torah and its learners."
According to the statement, the leader also noted that the protest is against the "terrible desecration of God's name" as yeshiva students and kollel scholars are being thrown into prison, while "no one opens their mouth or chirps."
