מה קרה
The Israeli Supreme Court upheld a freeze on hundreds of millions of shekels allocated to ultra-Orthodox institutions but allowed 78 million shekels for religious services to be released. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich's request to lift the freeze was mostly denied, though funds for rabbinical courts were exempted. The decision followed a petition challenging the legality of budget approvals during the election recess, with critics accusing the minister of political manipulation of funds.
