Israel's Attorney General and Finance Ministry recommend expanding economic sanctions against Haredi draft evaders to include daycare discounts and rent assistance, N12's Yuval Sadeh reports. The recommendation also calls for increased digital cooperation between the military and other state arms to tighten enforcement.
Yuval Sadeh (N12) reports that the Attorney General and Finance Ministry are recommending an expansion of personal economic sanctions against Haredi draft evaders. The proposed measures include removing daycare discounts and rent assistance programs — effectively clawing back benefits — alongside a push for closer digital coordination between the military and civilian agencies to track and enforce compliance. The recommendation expands on the Attorney General's earlier message today urging the government to intensify personal economic enforcement and resume arrests. The specifics of the daycare and housing measures, as well as the digital cooperation component, had not been detailed in previous reports.
