IDF Admits Difficulty in Handling Haredi Draft Protests After Modiin Incident

A senior IDF official admitted the Military Police's struggle to handle large Haredi draft protests after hundreds of demonstrators thwarted an arrest attempt in Modiin. The incident led to a dispute between the IDF and Israel Police over who was responsible for the failed arrest and subsequent release of a yeshiva student. The situation arises from increased pressure to enforce conscription laws against Haredi draft dodgers, with military officials promising renewed proactive enforcement in October. Several other recent incidents show similar interventions by Haredi communities to prevent arrests.
