The Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) public declared Friday morning it will not remain silent over a planned road blockade in Bnei Brak today. The statement responds to a threat by the 'Mothers on the Frontline' group to block entrances to the city, as reported by The Zioneer on Thursday.
The Haredi public's statement, issued Friday morning, warns it will not remain silent over a planned road blockade in Bnei Brak scheduled for today. The threat to block entrances to Bnei Brak and other Haredi cities was made Thursday by the protest group 'Mothers on the Frontline,' as The Zioneer reported. That threat was itself a response to a planned Haredi vehicle convoy protest against arrests of draft evaders. The Haredi convoy protests have been ongoing this week, with organizers previously warning they would block roads if police disrupted their convoys. The situation remains developing; exact details of the planned blockade are not yet available.
