Dozens of Ultra-Orthodox Protest Jerusalem Cafe Open on Sabbath
In Jerusalem, dozens of ultra-Orthodox Jews gathered to protest the opening of the "Basemta" cafe on the Sabbath. The demonstration took place near the cafe, which operates on the traditionally observed day of rest. Opposing the ultra-Orthodox protesters, secular Israelis also assembled at the scene, holding signs that read "Ultra-Orthodox, hands off our coffee" and "Freedom from religion even on the Sabbath." The event highlighted the ongoing tensions in Jerusalem between religious and secular communities regarding Sabbath observance and public business operations.
