Extremist Haredi factions plan to protest again today following the rejection of a law that would have granted immunity to Haredi draft evaders, according to N12. The location has not been officially published, but assessments indicate the protest will take place on Highway 4 in the afternoon. The protest would be the latest in a series of demonstrations over the Haredi draft issue, which have seen blockades of major highways and confrontations with police. The Zioneer has previously reported on similar protests, including one on Highway 4 that forced police to release a draft deserter, and another that led to driver attacks on protesters. The scale and specifics of today's protest remain unconfirmed.
