Ofer Winter, Chairman of Amcha Israel, was confronted and verbally attacked by a small group of extremist Haredim from the Jerusalem Faction in Bnei Brak on Tuesday evening. Winter had arrived in the city to engage with Haredi men who are enlisting in the IDF. During the meeting, Winter addressed the issue of Haredi conscription, stating, "We will pass a servicemen law. Those who serve will receive more, and those who do not regularize their status will receive nothing." He also highlighted his past efforts in the IDF to integrate Haredim into the military, noting that he "integrated and brought about the enlistment of Haredim in the IDF in the Haredi companies I opened in the army, to which hundreds of Haredim enlisted, more than others who shout from the stands will do in another 100 years." Following his remarks, Winter clashed with extremist Haredim from the Jerusalem Faction, who hurled insults at him, including "Nazi" and "anti-Semite."
