An extremist Haredi group arrived at the IDF's Bakum recruitment bureau in central Israel around noon Wednesday, protesting against Haredi men who are enlisting for combat support roles as part of the military's ongoing recruitment drive. The protest follows the Eda Haredit court's call earlier today for a noon demonstration outside the bureau, as The Zioneer reported at 09:20. The group is part of a broader wave of Haredi demonstrations against the draft, which have included blockades, confrontations, and arrests in recent weeks. No immediate reports of violence or arrests at the scene. The number of protesters and the duration of the protest are not yet clear.
