Clashes Erupt as Ultra-orthodox Demonstrators Block Roads in Jerusalem to Protest Military Service
Hundreds of ultra-orthodox Jewish protesters blocked intersections in West Jerusalem’s centre on Thursday, following the arrest of an ultra-orthodox draft-refuser Jewish man, who was trying to leave the country.
Demonstrators, members of the extremist Friedman faction, could be seen laying on roads and blocking traffic, causing heavy delays around the city, as dozens of cars were seen in traffic.
Police officers, in turn, were trying to drag protesters away from intersections, however, their attempts did not see success. Later, water canons were used to disperse protesters.
Earlier last week, police arrested a member of the sect who was imprisoned for draft refusal, sentencing him to 30 days in prison.
Ultra-Orthodox Jewish often ask for exemptions to avoid joining the mandatory army of the country, still, most extremist groups refuse to even apply for exemptions.
