01 · THE DISPATCH

State prosecutors filed an indictment Monday against 17 individuals, including four minors, for rioting and trespassing outside the home of the IDF's Chief Military Police Officer, Col. Yuval Yamin, in Ashkelon. The charges, as reported by Channel 12, stem from a protest against the military conscription of yeshiva students. All suspects are male; the four minors are aged 14-15. The case follows a similar indictment filed last week against four ultra-Orthodox men over a riot outside the home of Supreme Court Deputy President Justice Noam Solberg in Alon Shvut, as The Zioneer reported. That protest was also organized against the conscription of yeshiva students. The new indictment broadens the legal campaign targeting violent demonstrations against the draft, which have escalated in recent weeks. Further details on the charges and the suspects' identities are still pending, as the bulletin draws on a single source.
