Protesters gathered outside the home of Supreme Court President-designate Justice Yitzhak Amit in Mevaseret Zion on Sunday night, demonstrating against the arrest of a draft evader in the city, according to Hebrew media reports.
Protesters gathered outside the Mevaseret Zion home of Justice Yitzhak Amit, the designated Supreme Court president, on Sunday evening to protest the arrest of a military draft evader in the same city. The demonstration adds to a series of recent Haredi-led protests against military enlistment enforcement. The Zioneer previously reported two suspected deliberate ramming incidents at similar protests in Jerusalem and Petah Tikva earlier this week, which wounded a 93-year-old and a 21-year-old. No injuries or arrests were immediately reported at this evening's gathering outside Amit's residence.
