The Gur Rebbe is expected to lead a massive protest at midnight Monday outside Prison 10 in Beit Lid, with tens of thousands of participants, according to a report from Yediot Ahronot. The protest demands the release of a yeshiva student whose continued detention has sparked weeks of Haredi demonstrations.
The Zioneer has previously reported on a series of Haredi protests outside Prison 10 in Beit Lid over the military detention of a yeshiva student. On June 17, thousands of Gur Hasidim rallied at the site. A planned protest, led by the Gur Rebbe himself, would be the largest yet. The demonstration is scheduled for midnight Monday, with the Rebbe calling on tens of thousands to attend. The detention that sparked the protests remains ongoing; no release date has been announced.
