\r\n\tDozens of haredim protested the arrest of an ultra-Orthodox draft-dodger on Eshkol Boulevard in al-Quds on Saturday night.<\/p>\r\n
\r\n\tProtesters later attempted to block the entrance to the capital near the Bridge of Strings.<\/p>\r\n
\r\n\tSix protesters were detained for questioning. Similar protests were reported in Ashdod and at the Geha interchange on Route 4 near Bnei Brak.<\/p>\r\n
\r\n\tMeanwhile, More than 500 haredim rioted in al-Quds’ ultra-Orthodox Mea She’arim neighborhood Thursday afternoon to protest the arrest of a young man for refusing to report for IOF service.<\/p>\r\n
\r\n\tMany haredi rabbis have issued public prohibitions of enlistment, though failure to report for service can result in up to two years’ imprisonment.<\/p>","content_source":null,"content_url":null,"content_columns":"0","content_date_start":"2014-04-13 14:00:51","content_date_finish":"2014-04-13 14:00:51","content_date_register":"2014-04-13 14:00:51","content_date_last_edit":"0000-00-00 00:00:00","content_show_img":"1","content_show_details":"1","content_show_related_img":"1","content_show_slider":"1","content_show_title_slider":"1","content_comment":"0","content_score":"0","content_recorded":"0","content_confirmed":"1","content_status":"1","content_kind":"0","old_id":"122095","tag_id":null,"tag_word":null,"tag_service":null,"tag_total":null,"tag_soundex":null,"attach_token":"3488201706","attach_date_register":"2014-04-13 14:01:04","attach_id":"118446","attach_file_ext":"jpg","attach_file_header":"image\/jpeg","attach_img_type":"2","attach_img_width":"122","attach_img_height":"77","attach_file_media":"1","attach_show_watermark":"0","score_average":null,"score_count":null,"score_date_last":null,"visit_count":"251","visit_date_last":"2025-05-09 09:58:57","attach_title":"Haredim protest arrest of draft-dodger","node_title":"news","ot_node_left_right":"[{\"node_id\":122, \"left\":2, \"right\":53}]"}]]
